Itinerary

Transfer from 03:00 am to 03:30 am from hotel in Arequipa to transfer us to the Colca Valley, the trip will take approximately 4 hours to Chivay (main town of the Valley) where there will be a stop for breakfast and then the trip to Cabanaconde will continue (two and a half hours of travel approx.) from where we will begin our walk, descending to the Colca Canyon, which will take us approximately 3½ to 4 hours, during the tour we can appreciate, as we descend the diverse vegetation between Andean and tropical, and also the geological formation of the Colca canyon, part of the formation of the Andes mountain range.

Once at the bottom of the canyon we will cross the suspension bridge of San Juan de Chuccho, to arrive at the town of the same name, where we will spend the night, in houses of the settlers, equipped to serve tourists (basic accommodation)

We will have breakfast and then start our tour again, we will ascend approximately 300 meters and then reach the villages, first of Cosnihua and then Malata; where you will appreciate the way of life of the people, very characteristic, because in these villages there is no vehicular transport access. Again we will descend to Sangalle (oasis), place made by the Andean people, full of high Andean vegetation mixed with tropical vegetation, where thanks to a spring of warm water you can now enjoy a refreshing swim in the pools located in this beautiful place (the waters they have a temperature of approx. 18ºC) we will have lunch, and we will spend the second night in basic cabins.

We will have dinner and spend the night in cabins (basic rooms with shared bathroom)

04:30 am We will begin the ascent, it is a zigzagging and quite pending path, but after approximately 3 hours we will have the satisfaction of finishing this beautiful route.

Breakfast will be taken at a local restaurant and then take the mobility and go to the Cruz del Condor viewpoint, from this famous viewpoint you have one of the most impressive views of the Colca Canyon and from where you can usually see the impressive flight of the condors, return to Chivay, having the opportunity to visit the Calera and enjoy the relaxing hot springs.

Lunch and return to Arequipa, arriving between 17 to 18 hours.
