Journey to the Real “The Lost City of the Incas trek”

For decades, the name Vilcabamba to Espiritu Pampa Trek has captured the world’s imagination. Rooted in the Quechua words Huilco (“sacred” or “divine”) and Bamba (“valley”)—the Valley of the Gods—it became legendary when explorer Hiram Bingham mistakenly searched for it, stumbling upon Machu Picchu instead.

However, historical and archaeological truth lies much deeper in the Amazonian cloud forest: the true, ultimate redoubt of Manco Inca and the final capital of the Neo-Inca resistance was Espíritu Pampa (Vilcabamba La Nueva).

The 8-Day Vilcabamba to Espíritu Pampa Trek with Tunqui Expeditions is not just an expedition; it is an exclusive journey back in time across one of the Andes’ last truly untamed frontiers. Leaving behind conventional tourist circuits, this expedition traverses ancient stone paths that the Spanish conquistadors were never able to penetrate.

• Highlights: Vitcos, Yurak Rumi (Ñusta Hisp’ana / White Rock), Untouched Cloud Forests, Traditional Organic Farms (Cacao, Coffee & Sacred Coca), Indigenous Homestays, and Espíritu Pampa (Vilcabamba La Vieja).
