About this activity

"El Balcón del díablo" or "Devil´s Balcony", presents a perfect harmony between nature and Inca architecture, with constructions located in the rocks that seem to be one. At the top of the cliff, a crack works as a viewpoint of the whole site. The trek continues to Zone X, known for its natural rock labyrinths. After lunch en route, visit the Temple of the Moon; here you will learn more about the Andean cosmovision and its link with the stars and forces of nature. Later visit the archaeological complex of Cusilluchayoc, and after exploring it, undertake the return to Cusco, following the route of the old Inca road that went to the Antisuyo. Enter the city through San Blas, a neighbourhood known for its talented artisans, where the tour ends.
