It was an early start, a long walk, and a lot of effort, but when we stood in front of the sparkling lake with the glacier above, we knew it was worth everything. It's one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever seen.
What I loved most was the mix of adventure and peace. The hike made my heart race, but sitting by the lake felt so calming. The scenery was unbelievable, and I’m glad I shared it with such a friendly group.
The hike was a bit challenging, especially with the altitude, but it was totally worth it once we reached the lake. The turquoise water surrounded by snow-capped peaks was simply stunning. The group vibe was fun, the guide was supportive, and everything was well-organized. A must-do if you're in Cusco and love nature!
