Set out on a remarkable high-altitude adventure in the Peruvian Andes, where dramatic mountain scenery and pristine nature create an unforgettable day of exploration. This scenic hike from Cusco takes you close to the majestic Ausangate Mountain and along a route that reveals seven glacial lakes, each glowing in vivid tones of turquoise, emerald, and deep blue. The landscape feels wonderfully remote and untouched, with snow-capped peaks rising above the trail and herds of alpacas adding to the classic Andean atmosphere.
Ideal for travelers seeking both natural beauty and a rewarding outdoor challenge, this trek offers a true sense of wilderness and wonder. Every stretch of the journey brings new views, from shimmering lakeshores to sweeping mountain backdrops, making it one of the most breathtaking hiking experiences in Peru.
Settle into a peaceful jungle hideaway at Tahuayo Lodge, deep in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest. This spacious suite combines rustic charm with thoughtful comfort, making it a welcoming choice for couples or solo travelers looking to experience the wilderness without sacrificing ease. Hand-crafted wooden furnishings, screened windows, and mosquito-netted bedding create a simple yet inviting atmosphere, while the surrounding rainforest offers immersive views that place you right at the heart of nature.
Located at the main Tahuayo Lodge, this private cabin comes with its own bathroom and access to a wider range of activities than the Research Center. Guests can also enjoy hot shower water, fans available for the cabins, and unlimited purified drinking water throughout their stay. With its open-air, rustic setting and cozy queen bed, the suite offers a comfortable base for days filled with Amazon adventure and quiet moments of rest.
Set within the Amazon Research Center (ARC), these cabins offer a more secluded and untouched forest stay, located about 2 hours upriver from the main lodge. The ARC is officially recognized as a research institution by Peru’s national science council, CONCYTEC, adding a unique scientific setting to this remote Amazon experience.
Private, simple, and comfortable, the cabins provide an excellent base for guests who want to spend more time exploring the surrounding wilderness. More than 75 km of trails extend through a remarkable range of ecosystems, including igapo, bajial, high and low restinga, and palm swamp. This area is especially appealing for travelers interested in longer hikes and a richer chance of spotting wildlife, with species such as jaguars and giant river otters among the highlights.
Included amenities:
While the cabins are private, bathrooms are shared, keeping the experience simple and practical for a deep-forest stay.
