From the time of the
Conquest until 1572, the remnants of the Inca
civilization inhabited what is now the zone of
Vilcabamba, a region of mountains and jungles between
the Urubamba and Apurimac rivers. We offer a unique
large expedition, off the beaten path into the
Vilcabamba regions, considered the lost Capital of the
Incas during the Conquest time. Today the essence of
Vilcabamba remains unchanged. A strange mixture of quiet
beauty and shrouded mystery everywhere, the countryside
is strewn with evidence of the once powerful Inca.
During the adventure trek will let you visit several
Andean towns, archaeological sites and also enjoying the
beautiful local flora and fauna. On the way there are
archaeological sites such as Ńusta Hispana, classical
square lined with massive Inca stone work. Vitcos is
dominating the last residence of Manco Inca. Vilcabamba
trek is the entering to the hearth of the jungle, mostly
covered by thick overgrowth and many species of orchids
and also the specie of birds such as “cock of the rock”
(national bird of Peru).
All These simple fact continues to attract the
adventurous hikers to explorer the most extremely
landscape surrounding by mountains covered with glacier,
remote and rarely Andean and jungle villages, where the
locals still keeping the ancient tradition and their
daily activities to continue show us the real live
becoming from the lost city of the Incas.
