El Andar de las Sirienas:

An Initiatory Pilgrimage

Cusco • Machu Picchu • Lake Titicaca • Apu Ausangate

The Pilgrimage

la Andar de las Sirenas — The Journey of the Sirens — is a sacred pilgrimage through the heart of the Andes. This retreat invites participants into a living spiritual landscape where mountains are revered as conscious beings, lakes are portals of myth and origin, and ancient ceremonial traditions continue to guide human relationship with the Earth.

Over the course of ten days, we will travel through some of the most powerful sacred sites in the Andes, including the ancient capital of Cusco, the legendary citadel of Machu Picchu, the mythic waters of Lake Titicaca, and the majestic mountain of Apu Ausangate. The journey will be guided by Fanny Bonita, Meta Rose, and members of the Q’ero lineage, widely recognized as descendants of the last Inca spiritual tradition. Participants will also receive initiations with Maria Apaza, revered Q’ero elder and altomesayoq, whose lineage carries powerful ceremonial transmissions known as Karpay.

The path of the Sirens calls us into deep listening with the living spirit of the land. Through ceremony, prayer, and sacred offerings, participants will enter into relationship with the mountains, the waters, and the ancient energies that flow through these sacred sites. This journey offers space for reflection, transformation, and reconnection with the wisdom of the Earth.
