Pisaq – Potato Park – Kinsacocha – Chahuaytiri – Pachamanca

Pisaq, with its imposing agricultural terraces and ceremonial enclosures, rises above the Sacred Valley as a masterful testimony of Inca engineering and spirituality. Its natural viewpoints offer a profound reading of the landscape, where mountain and civilization dialogue in perfect harmony.

The journey continues to the Parque de la Papa, a unique biocultural sanctuary in the world, safeguarded by Andean communities that preserve hundreds of native varieties of this sacred food. Here, ancestral knowledge, the Andean worldview, and respect for the land are revealed in an intimate and deeply meaningful experience.

In Kinsacocha, high-altitude lagoons surrounded by sacred mountains create a setting of absolute serenity. The stillness of the environment, the pure air, and the immensity of the landscape invite contemplation and inner balance.

The visit to Chahuaytiri offers a genuine encounter with a community recognized for its ancestral textile tradition. Colors, symbols, and techniques transmitted through generations reflect Andean cultural identity in its most elegant and living form.

The experience culminates with a traditional pachamanca, prepared underground as a ritual of gratitude to Pachamama. This ancestral banquet, made with local products and authentic flavors, becomes a ceremonial act that honors the earth, the community, and the spirit of sharing.
