DESCRIPTION OF THE TRIP
The Humantay Lagoon, with its turquoise waters reflecting the majesty of the sacred mountains, is a place of deep energy and healing. In the Andean worldview, water represents life, movement, and purification; approaching this lagoon is opening a portal to personal rebirth.
This ritual is not just a simple tourist visit it is an inner journey. Through mindful walking, breathing, guided meditation, and offerings to Pachamama, you will experience a process of release: letting go of the old and welcoming the new with gratitude and hope.
Guided by an Andean master, we will take part in a purification ritual with water and flowers by the lagoon, accompanied by ancestral sounds that elevate intention. Each participant connects with the element of water symbol of life, flow, and rebirth allowing the spirit to be renewed.
This is a unique moment to cleanse energies, open the heart, and reconnect with nature. The experience ends with a silent meditation in front of the lagoon, where each traveler finds clarity and strength to continue their path.

Andean Ritual Tour in the Humantay Lagoon
Cusco + Mollepata + Soraypampa + Humantay Lagoon + Soraypampa + Mollepata + Cusco
- Humantay Lake is one of the most magical places in the Andean mountain range. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks and deep turquoise waters, it has become a sacred space where ancestral peoples have honored nature as a source of life and energy.
- The journey begins very early in the morning, with a private transfer from Cusco to the town of Mollepata. There, you will enjoy a traditional Andean breakfast, accompanied by coca or muña infusions that help with acclimatization and prepare the body for the day ahead.
- At Soraypampa, the hike to the lake begins. This is not a rushed route, but rather a mindful walk guided step by step, where each moment becomes an opportunity to breathe deeply, listen to the silence of the mountains, and feel the energy of the surroundings.
- Upon arriving at Humantay Lake, the landscape invites contemplation. In front of its crystal-clear waters, a ritual table is prepared with flowers, coca leaves, and natural offerings. In this sacred space, the Ritual of Rebirth is performed, which includes:
- Energy purification with water and flowers.
- Offering to Pachamama and the guardian Apus, in gratitude and respect.
- Guided meditation by the lake, to release burdens, open up to new energies, and plant life intentions.
- Personal time in silence, to write down thoughts or simply be embraced by the strength of the place.
- The experience concludes with a typical lunch in Mollepata and the return to Cusco. The body may feel a light fatigue from the hike, but the spirit returns renewed, with the sensation of having received a blessing from the sacred mountains.
- Meals: Breakfast and Lunch.
