Skip the brutal four-hour hike and book the cable car from Tingo to reach these Chachapoyan ruins in minutes. You get way more than Machu Picchu vibes without the crowds. Wander the 400 circular stone houses and look for the intricate friezes left by the Cloud Warriors. Spend three hours exploring the wall perimeters before the afternoon fog rolls in. Definitely book a local guide; without context, it’s just a cool pile of rocks.
