The color of this lake is nothing but unbelievable. The trekking is hard but the view really worth it. This is a must place to visit when in Cusco.

It's a great day excursion from Cusco even with the groups. I made it to the lake in 47 minutes, but this is not the norm. It's steep, moist muddy and littered with horse droppings. There are many various trail offshoots, have fun with these. {Advanced hikers: the tour groups generally understand people go at different paces. So you will have about 2.75 hours before they count people and start the group's decent. If you can summit the lake in 45-50 min, I highly recommend climbing the razor ridge to the right. It's slick, dangerous in spots, and no real trails other than the grazing animal paths. I took it all the way up to the rock face(another 35+ minutes) where the views are great. Had I known about the extra time,(they said 1.5hr for hike, 30 min at the lake) I would have made it onto the Glaciers. (More treacherous) On your way down, after you've reconnoitered with your party, you can get in another great view of the area by hoping over the hogback on your left (facing down) and coming in on the other side of the hill and river. (Bonus: no crowded path, and you can sneak in an extra kilometer or two of pretty scenery) I had to go aways down to find a good spot to jump the river, but found a bunch of cool bones and other small bugs plants and critters along the way.) If you're with a group, Lunch is a buffet, so that helps! The 3.5 hour bus ride is the hardest part.
