Cajamarca, Visit to the Archaeological Complex of Cumbemayo

Embark on an enchanting journey through a mystical stone forest, where this awe-inspiring location in Cajamarca will captivate your senses and leave a lasting impression.

Our excavation expedition begins with a pick-up from your accommodation at 9:30 am. We proceed to Cumbemayo, where we will explore its unique feature—a vast expanse of stone monoliths arranged in a striking pattern reminiscent of frailones.

Upon arrival, we will embark on a journey through the historical landscape of Cumbemayo, visiting the iconic Aqueduct of Cumbemayo. This ancient structure serves as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the pre-Columbian inhabitants, standing as a marvel amidst nature's grandeur. Remarkably, this monumental feat of hydraulic engineering has endured over time, allowing the waters to continue flowing for nearly nine kilometers.

Following our exploration of the Aqueduct, we shall venture into the heart of the sanctuary, where intricate carvings etched into the rocky cliffs remain shrouded in mystery. These mysterious cave systems offer a glimpse into the spiritual practices and beliefs of the indigenous communities who once inhabited this region.

As we make our way back towards the city, the breathtaking panoramas of Cajamarca unfold before us. Our return journey promises to be both educational and visually stimulating, ensuring that every moment spent exploring these natural wonders leaves a lasting impression.
