For hiking enthusiasts, Isla del Sol is one of a kind. The island offers a variety of trails that lead to breathtaking panoramas, especially of Lake Titicaca. Whether it's the terraced fields for agriculture, the arid lands surrounded by calm waters, or the paths scented by eucalyptus trees, each trail promises a unique adventure. And for those who want to cool off, the island is dotted with beautiful beaches.
Isla del Sol is well-known for its various Inca ruins to discover. One of the first zones not to be missed is the Inca Table, where human sacrifices were once made. Not far from there are the natural engravings of the Steps of the sun in the rock. Those who wish to go further into the south of the island can spend some time at the fountain of youth by taking the Inca steps that join the lake's water. After that, explorers can take a detour to the Temple of Pilcocaina before relaxing in the water of Lake Titicaca. On their way, tourists will surely come across a few herds of donkey llamas, adding even more charm to their visit.
For all those who want to know more about the history of Isla del Sol, the Museo del Oro, also known as the Golden Museum, is the best place. Visitors will discover a beautiful collection of artifacts from the underwater city of Marka Pampathe. But that's not all, because it will also be an opportunity to see the many pre-Columbian objects used as offerings to the gods at the time of the Incas. One thing is sure: this spot offers a very nice overview of the island's rich history. ◄
