CHOQUEQUIRAO - ARCHAEOLOGICAL COMPLEX THE SECOND MACHUPICCHU CUSCO - PERU
 
Choquequirao Quechua name meaning "Golden Cradle," although this is probably not its original Inca name, the mysterious and dazzling Inca city of Choquequirao is located in the beautiful landscape of the Vilcabamba range over the Apurimac River Canyon, It is another "lost city of the Incas" located high on a ridge spur almost 1750m above the raging glacier-fed Apurimac River and surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks. According to historians, Choquequirao was the dwelling of the last rebel Incas of Vilcabamba, and like Machupicchu , the Spanish were thought never to have discovered it. Hiram Bingham visited the site in 1910. This was his first experience of "lost cities" prior to his discovery of Machu Picchu in 1911. This route offers us a formidable trek across diverse ecosystems. We will enjoy beautiful views of the snow-capped peaks of the Vilcabamba Range.
