Small hostel on the dirt road from Tinki to Upis, about 6.7 km into stage 1 and on the trail, useful if you arrive late from Cusco and want to split the first day. Listed on OpenStreetMap only.

Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "not confirmed by the operator" are listed on OpenStreetMap or in hiker reports but could not be checked on an official page. The campsites on the Ausangate Circuit belong to Quechua herding communities. Most have no facilities beyond a stream and sometimes a toilet or stone shelter; ask the family before you pitch, pay the small fee in cash, and carry out all your rubbish.
