Humantay Lake full day tour from Cusco

Today, very early in the morning, our local expert guide will pick you up from your hotel lobby at 4:30 a.m. You will board our comfortable transport to begin your adventure hike to Humantay Lake.

You may take a nap on the way as our professional driver takes you on a 2-hour drive to Mollepata village, where we will stop for breakfast at a local restaurant. After breakfast, we will continue driving for about one more hour until we reach Soraypampa, the starting point of our hike.

There, we will prepare our backpacks and get ready for a 1.5 to hours ascent to the lake located at an elevation of over 4,200 masl.

Along the way, you will enjoy breathtaking views of the mountains, diverse vegetation, native wildlife, and of course, the stunning turquoise waters of Humantay Lake, framed by the majestic Salkantay and Humantay mountains. You will have time to enjoy the impressive scenery and take a well-deserved rest before we begin the 1.5-hour descent back to Soraypampa.

Once we return to the parking area, we will board our transport and drive for about one hour back to Mollepata village for lunch. Finally, we will return to Cusco, a 2-hour drive, arriving at approximately 17:00 p.m.
