Huchuy Qosqo is located at 11,800 feet above sea level, on a large natural terrace high above the town of Lamay. From here, there are magnificent views of the Sacred Valley of the Incas and the surrounding snow-capped peaks. Here we will take time to appreciate the site and the spectacular Andean scenery.
The site received its current name in the 20th century, even though it does not closely resemble Cusco. Previously, it was known as Kajya Qhawana, which means “place where lightning strikes.”
During the visit, we will observe the stone water channel that supplies water to the complex and runs through the archaeological site.
Later in the afternoon, we will begin our descent to the Sacred Valley, arriving at the small Andean town of Lamay (3,000 m). The descent will take approximately two hours.
