Ausangate Lodge to Lodge Hike in the Peruvian Andes

Written By Admin

A five days breathtaking trek in the Cordillera Vilcanota, on a route we call the “Camino del Apu Ausangate” located in close proximity to the highest, sacred mountain in the Cusco region in Peru. The “Apu” is the bearer of life and the guardian of one of the most pristine mountain ecosystems in the world. This is a unique experience in the Andes with the comfort of our four eco-friendly mountian lodges. Our treks will be accompanied by lamas and horses that will carry our gear, and are owned by shepherds of the communities of Chillca and Osefina, who are proud to share their land with us, as well as the Spirit of their inspiring world. On our hikes and in our unique “Tambos” or Andean Lodges, daily meals will be prepared by experienced chefs who will introduce you to a great variety of delicious Peruvian dishes and produce, and for our entertainment, authentic, vernacular music, played by local inhabitants, will liven up some of our evenings at the “tambos.”
