The geography of the Cusco region offers some of the most astonishing landscapes in Peru: imposing snow-capped peaks, flora and fauna, and striking colored lakes. To the south of the region, at the foot of the majestic Ausangate glacier, lies the so-called “7 Lakes Circuit”. As its name suggests, this natural area takes in seven crystal-clear lakes, where you can capture some of the best photographs of your trip. The best way to visit is with the all-inclusive tour our travel agency offers you.

Our staff will pick you up at your hotel at 05:00 AM and take you to the transport that will drive us to the village of Cusipata, where we will have breakfast. We then continue for about an hour before taking the turnoff that leads, after another hour, to the village of Pacchanta, where our hike of approximately 6 km begins. Along the way we will enjoy beautiful scenery, with views of Apu Ausangate and the 7 lakes in their different colors, and you will be able to take photos at each of the lakes in the area. We then return to Pacchanta, where you will have the option of a 40-minute soak in the hot springs, followed by a delicious lunch in the village. We then board our transport back to the city of Cusco, arriving at around 07:00 pm.
