Tour overview

Essential information about this experience.

Our Waqrapukara full day tour will take you to one of the ancient Inca temples located in the Andes Mountains in Cusco, this fortress is built on top of one of the steepest mountains, this trekking experience will also submerge you in an area where travelers do not usually go. This great trek takes you away from the traditional trekking in Cusco.

This archaeological center is a mixture of pre-Inca and Inca construction, therefore it was built by the Qanchi ethnicity and in the time of the Incas probably built in the period of Inca rule Wayna Khápaq considered a fortress.
