This trek is not for everyone as it is long and a great portion of it at quite high altitude. Ausangate is the holiest mountain in the Cuzco area, located to the Southeast of the city. High altitude communities, wildlife, glacial lagoons, natural springs and thermal baths are among the attractions of this trek. The circuit can be extended to cover more terrain and high altitude lakes, as well as allowing time to climb.
