Overview
Experience the breathtaking beauty of Laguna Humantay, a stunning turquoise lake nestled in the Andes Mountains at 4,200 meters above sea level. This full-day tour begins with an early morning pickup from your Cusco hotel, followed by a scenic bus journey to the district of Mollepata in Anta province. After a energizing breakfast, we'll continue to Soraypampa at 3,900 masl, where we'll begin our moderate 1.5-hour trek to the crystal-clear waters of this natural wonder. The lagoon is formed by the meltwater from the Humantay Mountain, which is part of the famous Salkantay Mountain range.

Marvel at the striking turquoise waters of the lagoon contrasting beautifully with the snow-capped Humantay Mountain. Participate in a traditional Pachamama ceremony (Mother Earth offering) at the lagoon, connecting with ancient Andean spiritual traditions. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Andean landscapes throughout your journey. Experience both breakfast and lunch buffets featuring local Peruvian cuisine. Benefit from expert guidance as you learn about the geological and cultural significance of this sacred place within Andean cosmology. This well-organized tour combines natural beauty, cultural experiences, and comfortable services for an unforgettable Andean adventure.
