Frequently asked questions about the Humantay Lake tour

Is it worth going to Humantay Lake?

Humantay Lake is easily one of the best day trips you can take from Cusco Peru. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. If you are planning a trip to Peru, don’t miss this hidden gem!

Is it possible to swim in Humantay Lake?

However, it is not legally allowed, and besides, the water is very cold. After all, the water is fed directly from the glaciers, so it is freezing cold. The bottom line is that no, it is not allowed, and you should not swim in Lake Humantay Peru at all.

How difficult is the excursion to the Humantay Lagoon?

Tour to the Humantay Lagoon Humantay Lagoon
Difficulty: Moderately difficult hike. Trail: Gravel and sand trail at first, flat for about 30 minutes. Then the climb has rocks all the way up. The last part of the trail is winding, rocky and slippery.

How long does it take to hike to Lake Humantay?

Discover this 2.6-mile loop trail near Mollepata, Cusco. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 7 min to complete. This is a very popular area for birding and hiking, so you’ll likely encounter other people while exploring.
