Highlights
- Sail at 3500m /11,000ft above the sea
- Sail beneath a backdrop of snow-capped mountains
- Enjoy the beauty of the Peruvian countryside
You can be one of the few to experience sailing on an Andean lake with our state of the art “Smart Kat” a 2 person inflatable sailing catamaran.
The best time to sail in Cusco is just after lunch as the wind slowly picks up during the day. A 40 minute drive from Cusco or the Sacred Valley bring us to the stunning Lake Huaypo, where we assemble the catamaran and following a full safety briefing, we enjoy sailing this fun yet stable craft, on a safe and beautiful lake, surrounded by Andean peaks.
Enjoy the stares of amazed locals as you whizz past, practice your tacks and gybes all under the watchful eyes of a skilful skipper. Following a couple of hours of sheer fun, we enjoy some snacks on the shore and head back to your hotel for the night.
Included: snacks & water, all safety equipment, transport
Add 40 U$ if Sacred Valley pick up is required
