From the chapel of Chataquila on the rim of the Cordillera de los Frailes you walk down the Inca trail to Chaunaca while you enjoy impressive views all around. When you reach Chaunaca our car will pick you up and take you to the Ravelo River where we have a break and you can swim if you like. Next the car will cross the river and will take you to the crater of Maragua.

We settle ourselves in the country houses; there you have a kitchen and hot showers. Dinner will be made before dark because there´s no electricity and it will be a romantic candlelight dinner in the middle of the crater.

Don’t want to do any hiking but just want to enjoy the view from the car? It’s still worth the trip! Around the village is a lot to see as well. Locals are happy to show you the weavings and the way they live. You can also visit the cemetery, the waterfalls and the Sacred Cave under the waterfall.

Be aware for the brown snakes in the humid parts!

By the way, for walking along the Inca trail (A day before) and visiting the Dino - tracks of Niñu Mayu we pay your fee, which is for the local communities who guard and maintain the sites and the trail.

This day very early, you can hike up (4 hours) to the dinosaur tracks at Niñu Mayu.

You can do more or do less hiking, depending on what you like, the car will be close at all times. Everything is flexible, just coordinate with your bilingual guide.
