Here, the Inca Trail passes through a little village where several paths are, just ask where to follow the Inca Trail or just follow the map. But everybody there knows the way.

Then follow the street until you get to this point. There are some houses. Ask there where to cross the river again and they will bring you to the “cable car”. Once you are on the other side of the river you are as good as there. Just walk 2 minutes to the entrance of the Cocalmayo.
