The first large ruin on the way is Patallacta, where you can overlook many terraced fields. If there is a campsite, you can take a rest and stop to admire the snow-covered mountain tops and the mist. The journey to Warmiwanusca, a pass at 4,200 meters above sea level, is the most arduous part of the trip. Also, you will have the opportunity to be exposed to a variety of unique birds as well as Andean bears. In addition, you can see Runkurakay, a lodge, or tambo for local residents. In Sayacmarca and Phuyupatamarca, you can capture the style and features of the Inca towns. Finally, you can head to the Sun Gate, where a spectacular sunrise in a deep and foggy valley is enough to soothe the weary body and mind.

It is important to note that in order to protect the trail, the official limit for the number of visitors is 500 per day. In addition, it is recommended to prepare medication before hiking to avoid altitude sickness and to stay in Cusco to adapt to the local environment.
