About Puqio
For a destination that attracts so many outdoor adventurers, Peru was a late adopter of the luxury camping trend. But Puqio, the first tented camp in the country, doesn’t disappoint — in fact, when it opened in 2024, this stylish safari-style hotel quickly became one of the most buzzed-about places to stay in the Colca Valley. There’s stiff competition in the region, a trekkers’ paradise known as the gateway to one of the world’s deepest canyons, but elegant Puqio, set outside the village of Yanque, offers something special. The hotel centers around a cozy, light-filled lodge where gourmet meals, prepared with local ingredients and cooked over open fires, are served family-style. Accommodations are in canvas tents or round adobe cottages, all featuring wood-burning stoves, heated walls, and private terraces. Cottages have wood-beamed ceilings and clawfoot tubs, while tents have open-air soaking tubs as well as indoor and outdoor showers. The look is rustic-chic throughout, with wooden writing desks, antique lamps, and natural linen and leather accents. Puqio’s knowledgeable guides lead guests through the surrounding wilderness, and closer to camp, it’s common to spot Andean hummingbirds and alpacas around the property — and, if you’re lucky, a condor flying high overhead.
