Itinerary

Day 1: Half-Day Horseback Riding on the Devil’s Balcony

After picking you up at your hotel, your guide will give you a brief explanation about the activity. Next, we will head to the ranch near Sacsayhuaman, where you will meet the horses and muleteers. Upon arrival at the ranch, the guide will give you a brief introduction so that you know how to control the horses and can drive them safely. The horses will be selected according to your experience and mood. We will start riding through the mountains of Cusco to a certain point after which we will walk until we reach the fabulous Devil’s Balcony or also called “Chacan”. Located at the back of Saqsayhuaman, this archaeological attraction and natural architectural heritage is a large rock with a spectacular view of an abyss in the center. There is a window, a balcony overlooking the river that runs under the rock. Under the balcony, the river runs through a huge cave to the other end of the rock. Here, in this natural cave formed thousands of years ago, which was used as an Inca sanctuary, you will stop and enjoy a snack. At each of the places mentioned, your guide will stop to give you a detailed explanation about it. You will then return to the ranch and head back to the city.
