This trek takes us to one of the most beautiful valley in the planet. Cut in two pieces by the Colca Canyon it is 100 kilometres long and 3517 meters deep. The ancient Collaguas lived in the Colca canyon and domesticated the Llamas and Alpacas and treated the land so well that nowadays they produce the most delicious potatoes and corn. At both sides of the canyon there are 17 temples and 90 archaeological monuments representing the cultural messages from the Stone Age to our days. It is important to mention that here lives the amazing Condor with all the magestuosity and elegance ofbeing the biggest bird. You will be able to admire this beautiful bird from the Condor Cross.
