Hike to the turquoise glacial waters of Humantay Lake beneath Salkantay's snowy peaks, with hotel pickup and a bilingual guide from Cusco.

Punti salienti

  • Turquoise glacial lagoon set beneath sheer ice walls
  • Close-up views of Apu Salkantay (6,271 m), the highest peak in the Vilcabamba range
  • Early 3:30 a.m. start to reach the lake in crisp morning light, good for reflection photos
  • Climb from Soraypampa (3,900 m) to the lake at 4,200 m, with optional horses for the ascent
  • Hotel pickup in Cusco and a certified bilingual guide (English / Spanish)
Humantay Lake is one of the most striking glacial lagoons in the Peruvian Andes, and this full-day tour takes you right to it. We pick you up from your hotel in Cusco's historic center at 3:30 a.m. and drive through the Limatambo Valley as dawn breaks, up into the Vilcabamba mountain range. From Soraypampa (3,900 m) we start with a short safety talk and warm-up, then climb steadily for around 1.5 to 2 hours along a rocky glacial trail to the lake at 4,200 m. There you'll find emerald and turquoise water set right beneath the ice walls, with time for commentary from your guide on the geology and local culture, plus photos and a rest by the shore. If you'd rather not walk up, local community members rent horses at the trailhead. We stop in Mollepata on the way out and back so you can have breakfast and lunch at a local restaurant, then return to Cusco in the late afternoon, with drop-off near the Plaza de Armas.
