Why choose this tour ?
The Yanaqocha Lake trek is a one-of-a-kind and convenient full day Sacred Valley adventure tour offered only by Puma Path Adventures.
Yanaqocha means a black lake in the Quechua language (Incan language) it was built by the Incans as a reservoir for the Temple of the Sun because of its pristine location.
The walking takes us through the native Andean forest of Onora with Chachacoma trees that are more than 600 years old.
After the 45-minute hike, we’ll connect with the spirit of the forest and the Apus (Sacred Mountains) and see the Waterfall of the Guardians of the Apus.
We’ll then cross a mountain pass “El Abra del Diablo” at 12,140 ft / 3700 m.
From here there is an incredible view of the Sacred Valley looking toward Machu Picchu and Veronika glacier.
We’ll also view the ancient Incan water canals used to transport water from high in the mountains to the Temple of the Sun and the town of Ollantaytambo.
