Greeted early morning by a hot cup of coffee brought to my tent, and a bowl of hot water to wash. Quinoa porridge followed by an omlette for breakfast.
After breakfast we are introduced to the 24 porters and then set off. It's an easy start, and very hot, hotter than I expected, the sun is strong at this elevation.
Following the course of the Kusichaca river the trail leads to Huayllabamba, a quiet village of Inca Origins and the last settlement on the route.
We stop for lunch and to rest in the sun for a short time before we set off again. Mid afternoon it starts to rain. We continue for another few hours climbing 1200 meters to reach our campsite at Llulluchapampa 3800m with stunning views of the snowy peaks around us. Wonderful view back down the valley.
