Machu Picchu, Machu Picchu and more Machu Picchu. We’re not saying you don’t have to visit Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley<\/a>, no way! What we’re telling you is that there’s so much more to see<\/b> in the Andes. If you are looking to do a Cusco trekking tour<\/b> and enjoy the lesser-known Inca ruins in the middle of the Andean nature with tranquility and privacy, it is possible with these two treks to Cusco.<\/p>\n

Choquequirao and Ausangate<\/b> are the rough diamonds of Cusco trekking tours. At the moment little known, but in a few years, who knows. We will not get here to imagine what it will be or not, but it’s good that we warn you to keep in mind, we watch over your enjoyment.<\/p>\n

Choquequirao Trek<\/h2>\n

Choquequirao, besides having a very curious name, is a truly challenging<\/b> 62-kilometer trek. Traveling Choquequirao<\/a> and crossing diverse ecosystems in the Andes Mountains with incredible views<\/b> of the Inca ruins is a tempting plan, we warn you.<\/p>\n

All in all, Choquequirao is a precious ancient Inca city<\/b> that sits above the Apurimac River canyon. Considered by many to be ‘the hidden Machu Picchu’ it is larger and less touristy, which makes it perfect.
\nPerfect if you love adventure and prefer to escape from places with lots of tourists, of course.<\/p>\n
