How to get out Abancay
You can visit the Canyon of Apurimac (Cañon de Apurimac) and cross it on a hanging bridge. Take a bus towards Cuzco and exit after ca. 1h at the village of Curuahuasi. Then go to Cachora - you can rent mules,horses and guides (canyon depth approx. 1000 m - one of the deepest in the world)
If you have 3 days, you can climb the canyon at the other side and
visit the recently discovered and only 30% excavated ruins of an Inca
city (Choquequirao). Guides are easily found via the tourist office in Abancay.
From Abancay to Puquio the bus costs 40 soles and the first one of the day leaves at 12 noon (Palamino). The views and country along this route are great, but it is windy.
