Overview

itinerary

DAY 1 – Vilcanota River:Cusipata Section

We drive south from Cusco, through farmland and valleys for about one and a half hours until we arrive at the small village of Cusipata, or “happy place”, to begin our rafting trip. After the safety instructions and the gear preparation, we put-in and paddle for about two hours in class II and III rapids. We will run “the Introduction” rapid, which is class III. From there we go through a section of class II rapids until we reach Cusipata Canyon, which has class III rapids.

We continue through sections with some waves and some flat sections of class I and class II rapids, then more class II rapids. All along, we will be enjoying beautiful views of the Vilcanota Mountain range and the flora and fauna of the Andean forest. We cover a distance of 15 kilometers on the river before we take-out at a beautiful spot, change into dry clothes, and have lunch. Our drive back to Cusco is about one hour and a half.
