WEATHER.
The Andean weather can be unpredictable,
despite the sharp divide between
dry and wet seasons. The dry season
runs from May to October or November;
the rainy season goes from December
through April. Nevertheless, Choquequirao
lies in the forested fringes of
the Amazon basin, where showers
can occur at any time of year. Therefore,
even in the “dry” season,
your daypack should always include
full rain gear (both jacket AND
trousers).
Daytime temperatures can vary greatly,
with daytime highs ranging from
10ºC/50ºF to 32ºC/90ºF
and nightime lows ranging from 10ºC/50ºF
to a cold 4ºC/40ºF, though
seldom much lower. The floor of
the Apurimac Canyon gets very hot
during the day. Bring your swimsuit
for a delicious dip in the river.
