In this period of quarantine, we know that you are all impatient to get off the beaten track to discover the little unknown jewels of our dear Mother Nature! Let’s be honest, we feel exactly the same. So impatient to enjoy once again a Sunday break to venture out in the heart of the Peruvian Andes; here I shared with you some information about the beautiful waterfall of Perolniyoc located in the sacred valley of Cusco region, about 60 km from the Cusco city.
Perolniyoc Waterfall Cusco
Perolniyocor Racaypata is a waterfall of almost 100 meters of height, that is in the farmhouse of Rayanin the superior part, of a rocky flowering that forms the fall of water, around this attraction can also be observed of the great variety of species of flora such as sauco, queuña, Chachacoma, etc. It is worth mentioning the unique beauty of the waterfall due to its height and the existence of an Archaeological complex called Perolniyoc. This beautiful waterfall is located in the province of Ollantaytambo; the journey to the place where you can see wonderful landscapes.
The water of the Perolniyoc Waterfall has a drop of approximately one hundred meters, and with a very peculiar characteristic: in its fall a thin veil is formed that, united with the rays of the sun, seems to release flashes in the distance.

At present, the Perolniyoc Waterfall is part of trekking tours set to several places in the area, but if you just want to visit it, we can organize a nice trip in a short time. In order to arrive at Machu Picchu, you start from Cusco or from any place located in the sacred valley we must get to Socma Village until this point, cars can arrive from here just walking. Once in Socma, you must do the rest of the trip on foot; this route to the waterfall will last at least half an hour.
