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, located at an altitude of 3700 metres and occupying an area of nearly 50 acres. This site consists of a series 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 the stone walls and viewpoints while learning about the history of this site.

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

We will conclude the excursion with lunch at a local restaurant before returning to Huanuco. We'll arrive at your accommodation at 5 pm.
