Day 1 – Cusco – Santa Teresa – Hidroelectrica – Aguas Calientes Village

Departure at 08:00 am.

From there, we will continue on a long and winding road to “Habra de Malaga”, which is located at an altitude of 4 316 masl / 14 160 ft. From that vantage point, we will see some of the most incredible landscapes that Peru has to offer.
After a brief stop, we will begin our descent into the thick jungle, passing through the different microclimates that combine the paradisiacal landscapes of the majestic snow-capped peaks with the hot and tropical entrance to the rainforest. We will continue along our route until we reach Alfamayó, where there is a paved road in perfect condition that we can use. However, we will have to take an unpaved road, to continue in the direction of Santa Maria, which is at an altitude of 1 575 masl / 5 167 ft. We will take a moment to rest here before continuing on to the small town, Santa Teresa, where a delicious lunch will be waiting for us at approximately 2 pm There will be a variety of foods available to suit all tastes.
