Jagged canyon ledges, soaring condors, surreal grasslands, and a river that is said to flow directly into the Milky Way—this is Valle Colca. Only three hours from Arequipa, this valley feels like one of the most remote places on earth. Pre-Inca terraces still in use today give hints of the stories left untold, impossible to discover in an afternoon visit.
Deep in the heart of the Colca Valley, Puqio turns back to nature. Fuming volcanoes, sweeping grasslands, and untrodden pathways await daily exploration. Clay oven and open flame meals that feature raw Andean flavours and traditions. At night, rustic elegance rejuvenates body and spirit of the experienced traveller.
Tented accommodations harken back to childhood yearnings, reawakening an instinct to explore.
Puqio features three distinct room categories to complement a variety of preferences: Pirca, Carpa, and Carpa Refugio. Inspired by the original canvas tents of first Andean explorers, each is crafted with rugged canvas to protect you from the elements.
