Leaving Cusco at 5am we begin our 8-hour journey over the Andes by bus, stopping for a coffee at the beautiful colonial village of Paucartambo.
Continuing, we climb to the highpoint of the Manu Biosphere at about 4000 m before descending to the cloud forest. In these mysterious surroundings we take a walk to the lek of the incredible Cock-of-the-Rock (bird below), to see the 'performance' of the males right under our eyes. We spend our first night in the rustic lodge Posada San Pedro (appr. 1,600 m).
