Itinerary
PRIVATE FULL DAY TOUR OF THE LAST INCA ROPE BRIDGE - Q’ESWACHAKA & FOUR LAGOONS
We will pick you up at around 4:30 am from your hotel in Cusco. Our first stop will be in Combapata, where we will stop to have breakfast and use the toilet.
After this, we will make our way to the second stop which will be the Combapata viewpoint.
After enjoying the beautiful view, we will head to the district of Yanaoca, one of the eight districts of the province of Canas in Cusco.
The next stop will be Q’ewe where the famous Inca rope brigde Q’eswachaka is located. This bridge is made of woven grass and is approximately 120 feet long. The most amazing thing about this bridge is that is rebuilt every one or two years as communal effort by all the local people of the region, using the same techniques and materials as the Incas. Once we get to the bridge, we will have time to explore it and the surrounding area whilst the tour guide informs you about its history.
After this, we will drive for about an hour until we get to the Lagoons of Pampamarca, Asnacqocha, Acopía and Pomacanchi where we will stop to have a picnic for lunch. Here, we will be able to see all the flora and fauna of the region along with its beautiful scenery. We will then make our way back to Cusco.
On our way there we will make a stop at the Rumipunku gate to then finally arrive back at Cusco (2-hour drive approximately). We will arrive at Cusco at around 4:30 pm.
