This canyon is reportedly the deepest in the world, thought to be twice as deep as the Grand Canyon in the USA. Unlike most of the Grand Canyon, portions of the Colca canyon are habitable, with pre-Colombian terraced fields still supporting agriculture and human life.
Here it starts and is only 15 m deep. We follow the canyon on the right side and cross at the last bridge to the left side. All the way till it is about 1400 m deep. Than back to a hot shower
