Magical experience worth every step - Magical experience, really worth climbing. From the start I felt that all the effort was completely worth it. The path, the views and the energy of the place make it something unique. When you get upstairs, the feeling is indescribable: a mixture of emotion, peace and wonder. It is certainly an experience that I would live again and that I recommend to anyone who has the opportunity to do so.

Discovering Palccoyo: Family Day Trip from Cusco - I went to Palccoyo Mountain with the family from Cusco with the Cusco Travel Agency and it was a very nice experience. The tour is quiet, ideal for going with children and older adults, and the scenery is breathtaking. The attention of the agency was punctual and organized, which allowed us to enjoy the day without worries. Undoubtedly, a recommended excursion to share with the family.

I really liked the quality of the experience, to be able to have the opportunity to visit one of these beautiful places and - Very nice, I recommend if or if you pass by this beautiful place and obviously go well equipped. Consider warm clothes because it is very cold and shoes that allow you to make the hike much calmer and more fascinating
