Peru Holidays: white water Rafting the Urubamba

Sacred Valley - Cusco

Peru

Rafting the Urubamba River through the Sacred Valley of the Inca is a rush into the hearth of nature and past. The emotion of rafting through the tranquillity and ancient remains that spread along the Sacred Valley, remain forever in the mind of the river adventurer.

The Itinerary

Day 1: Cusco - Huambutio - Sacred Valley
Early morning, we pick you up at your hotel in Cusco and drive to the put-in at Huambutio/Andahuaylillas (Sacred Valley). After preparing and boarding our rafts, we begin by running down the Urubamba River in the Sacred Valley till the take-out point at the San Salvador section. From here, we drive to Ollantaytambo and stay the night in a hotel or in camp (L).

Day 2: Ollantaytambo Rapids - Sacred Valley
After breakfast, we drive to the second rafting section, close to Ollantaytambo to scout the conditions of the class III rapids on our schedule today. We return to a nearby beach to prepare and board our rafts. Hearth-thumping excitement is the keynote of our descent down the river that awaits us to challenge our skill and co-ordination. After a lunch by the river, we visit to the ancient ruins of Ollantaytambo. By evening, we return to Cusco (B L).
