Venture into the deepest gorge found in western Peru on our hiking and abseiling activity in the Autisha Canyon. We'll set off from Lima for an exhilarating adventure!
Activity Details
After being picked up at your preferred meeting point in Lima, we will embark on a 3.5-hour road trip to the province of Huarochirí, crossing the Santa Eulalia Valley to reach the Autisha Canyon. Upon arrival at the farmhouse near the river, we will prepare for a 15-minute hike to our starting point. Here, we will don safety gear and receive instructions to begin abseiling into the natural tunnels.
The journey includes a descent through six underground levels, utilizing stairs and a suspension bridge, with the canyon illuminated by our flashlights. The views will be remarkable.
At the trail's end, we will admire the Shekel Waterfall and have the opportunity to abseil down the 90-foot-high (30-meter-high) canyon walls adjacent to the waterfall. Following this, we'll hike out of the canyon to a parking area to enjoy a delicious lunch featuring typical Peruvian dishes before our return journey.
On the way back, we will stop at Santa Eulalia to sample its famous homemade ice creams. Finally, we will return to Lima and say goodbye at the meeting point after 13 hours.
