One of the most precious gifts given to us by the Inca is this hanging bridge that lies over the Apurimac River. Made of thatch or ichu icho, this marvel is renewed year after year through a rite performed by the communities of Winch’iri, Chaupibanda, Ccollana Quehue and Perccaro. Therefore, do not miss the opportunity to cross its 28 meters long which will make you live the adrenaline to the fullest in this beautiful Inca construction.
Pick up from the hotel will be from 4:00 to 4:30 a.m., once the whole group is concentrated we will head south of Cusco. Our first stop will be in Cusipata, where we will enjoy a delicious breakfast.

The amazing thing is that it is rebuilt every year in the month of June by four local communities, in this place we will have some time to explore Q’eswachaka and the surrounding area, while the guide will explain the history of this Inca engineering work.
