fountains, we start the four-hour ascent that will take us past
spectacular overlooks above the great valley, then below a lovely
waterfall near the delightful site of Wiñay Wayna (Forever Young).

sites, passing its chain of ritual baths and elegantly curved

unforgettable sweep of natural beauty and human artistry –a backdrop
of twisting gorge and forested peaks framing the magical city of
