Camino Principal Antisuyu

What should have been a nice little walk turned out to be a great hike behind Cusco city.
We started of walking through narrow streets of San Blast unroll we reached the edge of the town.
From here it was slow uphill walk to the first Temple del Mono or Monkey Temple. From here we walked a bit further unroll we reached the Temple de la Luna (Moon temple) where we met few other tourists exploring the area.
Once we climbed all the way to the top, we could see couple more paths leading inland.
We decided to take one of them that took us first around few llamas enjoying lunch and then a man who decided to wash his hair in a stream running through the valley. I must say, I have never seen someone using that much shampoo! Now even hair saloon in central London uses that much shampoo. That resulted in a soapy bath I have never seen before.
We left man to probably take full bath and continued up the hill.
From here there was no more tourists and we have been let to admire stunning Peruvian countryside.
As we decided to look for a ruin that was on a mapy.cz we left the paths behind and headed for rocks from where we could finally see our destination.
Once we explored Inkilltanbo completely alone we headed towards couple more ruins on our way back to town.
We have walked a lovely path with green hills all around us and watched the town getting closer and closer.
For the rest of the journey we have met only couple of locals but no tourists.
It has been a lovely trek and we ended up seeing ten different ruins, all completely free!Read more
