Discover the Q’eswachaka Tour, a full-day experience from Cusco that combines Andean culture, high-Andean landscapes, and a visit to one of the most representative plant-fiber bridges of the Andean tradition. The journey takes you to Q’eswachaka, located over the Apurímac River at approximately 3700 m / 12,139 ft above sea level, where you can learn about this ancient tradition of bridge construction and community renewal.During the journey, we will visit Rumí Punku, the Combapata Viewpoint, and the district of Quehue, home to the Q’eswachaka Bridge, built from plant fibers and approximately 28 meters long. After exploring the bridge and its surroundings, we will continue to the Pampamarca, Asnacqocha, Acopía, and Pomacanchi lakes, enjoying the natural landscapes of this area of the Andes.The Q’eswachaka Bridge is renewed every year in June by four local communities, preserving an ancestral tradition connected to the Andean road system. With a moderate difficulty level, this 1-day tour is an excellent option for travelers interested in discovering Cusco’s cultural heritage while enjoying the beauty of the high-Andean lakes.
