Garu and Corona del Inca Excursion

We'll pick you up at 6 am at your accommodation in Huanuco and begin our route to the district of Choras.

After a three-hour drive, we'll start a 2-kilometre walk across the Cóndor Waganan hill until we reach the archaeological complex of Garu, the ancient capital of the Yarowilca Empire. This site, located at an altitude of 3700 metres, covers nearly 50 acres and consists of flagstone buildings, passageways, stone towers, and tombs.

The site is divided into three sections: Huaychao, Gantu, and Jucchu or Gayarina. We'll walk along stone walls and viewpoints that define the sections while we learn about the site's history.

After exploring the archaeological complex, we'll return to the road and head to Corona del Inca hill, an area of rocky mountains.

To conclude the excursion, we'll return to Huanuco and stop for lunch in a local restaurant. We'll arrive at your accommodation at 5 pm.
