    Day 1: A Journey into the Andes

    Cusco - Kayrawiry

    Our Ausangate adventure begins with an early departure from Cusco, heading toward Pitumarca, where the breathtaking Andean landscape unfolds before us. Upon reaching Q’esuyuno, we’ll begin our trek, gradually ascending through diverse terrain filled with stunning vistas and local wildlife. The journey to Kayrawiry immerses us in the serene beauty of the highlands, offering a perfect blend of cultural encounters and natural wonders.

    Arriving at our first campsite in Kayrawiry, we’ll rest in the peaceful embrace of the Andes, with a night sky perfect for stargazing. This day covers 14 km (8.7 miles) and reaches an altitude of 4,800 meters (15,748 feet), providing a moderate challenge. As we reflect on our experiences, from the vibrant local communities to the awe-inspiring landscapes, we’ll look forward to the adventures ahead in this unforgettable trek.
