Explore the stunning nature that surrounds Cusco on horseback. You'll visit the beautiful Moon Temple and Chacan Mountain in a unique way.
Horse Riding to Moon Temple & Chacan Mountain
Pickup from your hotel in Cusco will take place before a 20-minute minibus ride to the ranch in Huayllarcocha. The horseback riding experience in the mountains of Cusco will then begin.
After meeting the horses, you'll ride through the Peruvian countryside towards the Temple of the Moon, the first stop of the tour. This sacred site was significant for Incan ceremonies and offerings during full moon nights, with a guide sharing intriguing stories about the temple.
The ride continues to the Balcon del Diablo, home to an ancient cave considered sacred by the Incas. Here, the guide will provide insights into this historical location.
As you progress, you'll encounter Chacan Mountain, passing through picturesque Andean communities. At the mountain top, enjoy impressive views of Cusco.
The experience concludes with a snack before returning on horseback to the ranch. You'll be dropped off at your hotel approximately 3.5 hours after departure.
