El Paraiso Rainforest in Yanahuara, Urubamba, is a unique and special forest on the way to Lares. The path meanders through verdant landscapes, terraced fields, and whispering eucalyptus groves, surrounded by rivers and swamps. The trail’s not difficult, making it accessible to most hikers, offering both challenge and serenity.

Embarking on a hike to El Paraíso, is more than a physical endeavor; it’s an invitation to connect with the land, the spirits, and oneself. Whether you’re drawn by the allure of nature, the depth of history, or the call of spiritual exploration, this sacred path offers a transformative experience in the heart of the Andes. A hidden garden of peace and reconnection, just beyond the traditional tourist routes. This sacred woodland invites you into its gentle green arms for quiet reflection, healing, and communion with nature.

Locals often describe El Paraíso as a place where “the forest breathes with you.” It’s said that the trees here hold the memory of the land—the quiet wisdom of the ancestors, the whisper of medicinal plants, and the teachings of Pachamama (Mother Earth). It’s a place for deep grounding, cleansing, and returning to simplicity.

This hike was like we really were going to The Paradise,
so full of peace and everything breathing!
