DESCRIPTION

A place hidden among the mountains that shows us the great importance that these spaces had in Inca times and their ancestors. It is known for its spectacular rock formations and cliffs, which provide an impressive view of the valley and surrounding mountains. Stone structures can be found in the site, including plazas, towers, terraces, stairways and ceremonial enclosures. All of these are evidence of the high level of engineering and architecture of the ancient Andean civilizations.

This is undoubtedly the best option for hikers who do not have much time. It is also feasible for family groups, couples and friends or on your own exploring new adventures.
