The Cordillera Vilcanota is an impressive range of mountains, which include the massive Nevado of Ausangate (6,385m) (20,948ft) and three others over 6000m. It is excellent trekking country offering the traveler everything you could want: spectacular mountain scenery, snow-capped peaks, hot springs, turquoise lakes, glaciers, herds of llamas, and alpacas, picturesque villages and traditionally dressed Indians. Its also high, tough, and cold, so be prepared.
The trek starts and finishes at the small Andean village of Tinqui and takes you around the massif of Ausangate and over three high passes (two of them over 5000m). It is essential to be properly acclimatized for this hike, spending at least three days in Cusco (or equivalent altitude) before starting.
The best months for doing the trek are April to November.
