We will continue on our journey by car towards Soraypampa, approximately one hour (3900msnm). Here, we will begin our trek to Lake Humantay located at 4200mt (13779 feet). The hike up will take around 1 hour and 30 min and is a fairly steep hike up. If the climb is too difficult, you can take a horse up to the lake. All the hardship will be forgotten when you reach the top and see the magnificent Apu Humantay Lake. Up at the top we will learn about why this site was considered sacred for the Incas and take time to appreciate the breathtaking views.
