Once you arrive at Choquequirao, you will enjoy a guided tour of the archaeological complex before setting up camp for the night.

After an early breakfast, you will have more time to explore Choquequirao in the morning. Then, you will begin the return hike along the same trail you took the previous day. This hike will take about 7 hours, and you will arrive in Santa Rosa where you will spend the night.

We will wake up to the songs of birds and the beautiful scenery. We will walk to Cachora and from there we will take a bus back to Cusco to arrive at approximately 8 pm, this is the end of our Choquequirao trek.
