There is nothing so liberating than finding out that you are capable of more, far more than you ever believed. Nothing frees you from the noise of self-doubt than stepping outside of your comfort zone. Trekking thousands of kilometers away from the bustling cities, into the enigmatic highlands, lets you challenge your own boundaries. You are pushed and tested both mentally and physically, but the Zen you find within your self-satisfying exhaustion makes it all worthwhile. Trekking lets you discover your truest and the best self. It is an experience capable of changing everything about yourself and your view of our personal journeys.

In Quechua, Inti Raymi literally translates to “Sun God”, which is why the festival is also referred to as the Festival of the Sun. It was believed that the Quechua were descendants of the sun and had to pay homage to it through a ritual, thanking it for the years harvest. Today, Quechua is only spoken amongst the older generation. The continuity of indigenous traditions is critical to preserving their language and culture.

Each Quechua sub-group has its own, specific, identifying weaving style. The Q’ero community is one of the few communities in the area whose men wear a type of sleeveless tunic that dates from the pre-Hispanic Inca Empire. They are known outside the area for their traditional weaving techniques, with which they make the unkuña carrying cloths, used to transport coca leaves, harvested crops or holy stones.

“Here are two Quechua women searching for some of their alpacas on the slope of the mountain!
Everyday, they take them out so they can eat grass... but every late afternoon, they must gather them and bring them back to their enclosure.
Trust me, it's not an easy job to climb sometimes over 5,000 meters high to bring an alpaca back to the house!... “ .

Met this father and his daughter in the Upis Alto community at the foot of the Ausangate mountain. She was coming back from school which is located 1 hour and a half lower in the valley! They were both beautifully illuminated by the afternoon sun light, with this iconic mountain in the background. .
To book yourself a trip to ausangate, please email us at info@caminalosandes.com or visit caminalosandes.com for more details. .

All the ponchos, blankets and shawls are made by women. This is an ancient craft is key to the survival of their ancestral traditions: the designs and motifs are used to tell stories and to educate about their history, culture and mythology.
