Getting to Humantay Lagoon requires proper planning, especially if you want to enjoy the journey without stress. From Cusco, the route to the lagoon can be divided into two main parts:
Transporte desde Cusco hasta Soraypampa: La primera parte del viaje implica un trayecto de aproximadamente 3 horas en coche desde Cusco hasta Soraypampa, el punto de partida de la caminata. Aquí es donde Machu Picchu by car vip entra en acción, ofreciéndote un transporte cómodo y seguro en nuestras unidades modernas. No tendrás que preocuparte por la logística, ya que nuestros conductores bilingües están capacitados para ofrecerte una experiencia agradable mientras te preparas para el trekking.
Walk from Soraypampa to the lagoon: Once in Soraypampa, the walk begins. The tour is approximately 1h.50min to 2 hours, depending on your pace and physical level. The hike has a moderate to steep incline, so it is recommended to go at a steady pace and take breaks if necessary. Along the way, you will enjoy impressive landscapes of mountains, valleys and the imposing presence of the snow-capped Salkantay, one of the highest mountains in the region.
If you prefer to avoid the full walk, you also have the option of renting a horse in Soraypampa, which will allow you to enjoy the landscape without physical effort.
