The Lodge to Lodge Ausangate Trek is a breathtaking trek through the Vilcanota Cordillera and in close proximity to the highest sacred mountain in all of Cusco, on a route we call the “Camino del Apu Ausangate”. The Apu Ausangate (Ausangate Mountain) is considered the mountain spirit that watches over life one of the most pristine mountain ecosystems in the world.  This trek will be accompanied by llamas and horses, owned by shepherds of the nearby community of Chillca, who will carry the gear. This hike also features unique tambos or lodges, where daily meals are prepared by experienced, local chefs, who will introduce you to a great variety of delicious Peruvian dishes. To liven up some of the evenings, there will be authentic music played by local musicians.

Please keep in mind that distances, altitudes and chosen campsites are subject to minor variations as the route undertaken may vary slightly. In addition, trekking time can vary for each hiker and any times detailed in the description below are averages.
