Exploration Path
Inside Quebrada Yanahuara, following a small stream that descends from the glaciers and crosses an ancient forest, we will find tremendous biodiversity with native trees over 200 years old. After leaving the gorge we will visit Enisfera, a private reserve that preserves hummingbirds, where we will observe these beautiful birds, which are characteristic of the valley.
Following the winding course of the Urubamba River, this area showcases Inca architecture at its best, enclosing some of Peru’s most important archaeological landmarks, from Pisac to Macchu Picchu.
