    • Ride a horse for 2 or 3 hours through the agricultural terraces of Yumina, built under the reign of the Inca Mayta Capac and still in use today

    By car, you wander through the surroundings of Arequipa, making stops at the main spots of interest such as the square and church of Cayma, mirador of Yanahuara and Sachaca, Sabandía watermill, Mansión del Fundador, inca terraces of Yumina and village of Characato (3-4 hours) .

    I suggest 3 hikes of 1 day around Arequipa, with different landscapes and difficulty levels.

    Tiabaya-El Huayco. Hike through the green fields along the Rio Chili. Low difficulty.
    Chiguata-Yumina. Follow the gorge of the Rio Andamayo in the river bed up to the cultivated terraces of Yumina. Moderate difficulty.
    Pocsi-Yarabamba. Hike down the gorge of Rio Polobaya through the picturesque villages of Sogay and Polobaya. Moderate to high difficulty
