Tour highlights.
Depart from Restaurant Campary, at the foot of Vilcabamba’s central square. We climb 400 meters in 6.5 kilometers, passing Izhcayluma and reach the crest of the valley, which offers magnificent views. After a 4-km descent (downhill) to Masanamaca, we’ll turn onto a road that will take us past rivers and settlements to the valley of Piscopamba. From there, we’ll follow a road to Quinara, where we’ll have lunch.
We follow the canal from Quinara to Tumianuma, and take the old road between Tumianuma and Linderos through the hilly terrain of a dry forest. From Linderos, we’ll take the river road to Cucanama Alto, and climb a horse trail to a canal, which we’ll follow for an easy, view-filled return to Vilcabamba.
