Top Attractions in Calca
💡 Try the fresh queso fresco (white cheese) and buy a bag of coca leaves for 2 soles—great for altitude.
💡 Best at 6am before the clouds roll in. Bring water—the steep cobbled street up is a proper lung-test at 3,400m.
💡 Go at dusk when the church facade lights up and food stalls sell anticuchos (grilled hearts) for a few soles.
💡 Take a micro from Calca to the village of Pisac (2 soles), then walk up the path behind the football field. The views down to the valley are better than at Machu Picchu.
💡 Entrance is 3 soles. Go early on weekdays to avoid local foot-washers. The hottest pool is the smallest one furthest from the entrance.
