About the tour:
Lake Humantay is famous as one of the most beautiful –and most sacred- lakes in Cusco. Its turquoise waters reflect the snow-covered slopes of Mount Salkantay (6270 meters), and it is one of the most picturesque locations anywhere in the Cusco region.
Travelers seeking more adventure can opt to do the Salkantay trek. This is a 5-day route through the high Andes, ending at Machu Picchu and including Lake Humantay along the way.
