Inca Trail Trekking from Culebrillas to Ingapirca

Adventurers, join us on this trekking activity along the Inca Trail from Culebrillas to Ingapirca, one of the best-preserved routes of this ancient civilisation!

Description

After picking you up at your accommodation in Cuenca at the indicated time, we will proceed to the starting point of the trekking route along the Inca Trail. We will explore the landscapes from Culebrillas to Ingapirca.

The trek begins at the Culebrillas lagoon. From here, we will follow a paved path through ranches and tampus built by the Incas. The history of this path connecting Quito and Cusco will be shared.

Halfway through, we will reach an elevation of 4,100 metres (13,451 feet) above sea level, offering impressive panoramic views of the mountains. At the end of the trek, we will arrive at the village of San José, where local children will welcome us, and we will break for a typical lunch.

After lunch, we will visit the archaeological site of Ingapirca, one of the most significant Inca sites in Ecuador. While exploring these ruins, information about the Cañari and Inca cultures will be provided.

After 10 hours of trekking along the Inca Trail, we will return you to your hotel in Cuenca.
