  • This is the story of our 7 day adventure through the Peruvian wilderness. On the legendary Choquequirao Trek, all the way to the Inca ruin Machu Picchu. The hike was not for the faint-hearted, but you were rewarded with great views and an experience not to be forgotten. I can absolutely recommend.
    Day 1: Cachora (with bus from Cusco about 6-7 hrs, then again a bus at the junction 1 hr.) - Santa Rosa Baja
    Day 2: Santa Rosa - Choquequirao - Pinchaunuyoc
    Day 3: Pinchaunuyoc - Maizal - Yanama
    Day 4: Yanama - Collpapampa
    Day 5: Collpapampa - Llactapata Lodge
    Day 6: Llactapata - Hidroelectrica - Aguas Calientes
    Day 7: Aguas Calientes - Machu Picchu - Aguas Calientes - Hidroelectrica (from there with Bus direct to Cusco about 8-10 hrs)
    00:00 Intro
    01:50 Cusco & the sacred valley
    03:14 Day 1: Cachora to Santa Rosa
    05:34 Day 2: Choquequirao
    09:18 Day 3: Maizal & Yanama
    12 51 Day 4: to Collpapampa
    14:44 Day 5: to Llactapata Lodge
    17:36 Day 6: to Aguas Calientes
    18:38 Day 7: Machu Picchu
    Sleeping & Food:
    There are small family houses with a garden where you can put up your tent and they can cook for you till Marampata. And from Yanama all the way to Llactapata.
    From Marampata to Yanama the only possibity is in Maizal, but there's often nobody there. Important to bring food, because there's nothing on the way. You are here really off the civilization.
    From Yanama there's once a day a small bus which takes the locals to Santa Teresa (from there you can catch a bus to Hidroelectrica) if you're legs give up.
    A really good website with lot's of good information:

    Hi patripo, did you use a map or is it not possible to get lost along the trail? When did you go and how cold was it at night?
    Loved your video!!

    • @patripo
      @patripo  Рік тому

      Hey ette 😆 I just used the app maps me. Together with a gps it's quite easy to follow the trail as there are not many there. To get to Choquequirao it's very easy. After that to get to Yanama it's bit uneasier because it's bit more overgrown. But there's only one path. Just use maps me.
      Weather was quite warm at night. Between 5 to 10 degrees maybe in July/August. On the passes it can get easily below 0.
      Enjoy the trek!

    Great video! I have a question: are there opportunities to charge your devices in the villages along the way?

    • @patripo
      @patripo  2 роки тому +1

      No, maybe if you have luck you could find a spot to charg them. But normally tey don't have electricity. I would take a powerbank with you
