WHAT WE DO

Magic Hikes offers private psilocybin experiences in Peru's Sacred Valley.

Each experience takes place along carefully selected hiking routes that lead through some of the region's most beautiful landscapes, from mountain viewpoints and waterfalls to quiet trails surrounded by the Andes.

The combination of psilocybin and immersive time in nature creates a unique setting for reflection, insight, wonder, and personal exploration. Every experience includes preparation beforehand and integration support afterward, allowing participants to approach the journey with greater clarity and confidence.

HOW IT WORKS

đź“… Flexible Scheduling

Hikes are available on demand, any day of the week. Once you're interested, we’ll send you a catalog of curated options—mostly in the Sacred Valley, with one beautiful spot just above Cusco (perfect if you prefer no travel or hiking).

👤 Tailored for You

No experience with mushrooms? No problem! Whether you're completely new or more seasoned, we’ll help tailor the psilocybin dosage to your comfort level and intention, and we’ll guide you with thorough preparation beforehand so you feel safe and ready.

⏳ Duration & Timing

Most excursions last a full day, but shorter 4–6 hour options are also available. If you're staying in Cusco, you’ll be back by around 6:30 PM.

🍄 Your Journey

We don’t hike under the influence. We hike first, then settle into a good spot. After a safety briefing, the experience begins. During the ceremony, it’s your journey—I’ll only guide you if you ask. You can keep it as private as you want; I’m there simply to ensure your safety.

🚶‍♂️Hikes for All Levels

Whether you want something easy or challenging, long or short, we’ll choose the perfect route for you. We’ll have a short video call beforehand to select the best fit and answer any questions.

🎒 Integration & Support

After the experience, we hike back together. Soon after, we’ll check in with you and offer integration support, helping you make sense of the experience and apply it meaningfully in your life.

THE HIKES

We will take you to incredible places, some off the beaten path—that you might never discover without an alternative guide. Most of the destinations we visit are sacred sites rich with Inca or pre-Inca ruins, flowing rivers, majestic mountains, and ancient forests. These powerful landscapes offer the perfect setting for deep connection, reflection, and healing, enhancing your magic mushroom journey in a truly unforgettable way.

YOUR GUIDE

I'm Rodrigo, a guide and facilitator with over 29 years of experience working with psychedelics. Through private mushroom hikes in Peru's Sacred Valley, I combine immersive experiences in nature with a grounded, responsible approach to psilocybin work.

My background includes extensive personal practice as well as formal training in psychedelic safety and integration. My role is not to direct your experience, but to provide a safe and supportive container in which it can unfold naturally.

Whether this is your first psychedelic experience or your fiftieth, I bring experience, presence, and careful attention to each journey, helping participants navigate the experience with greater confidence and clarity.

WHAT ARE MAGIC MUSHROOMS?

Magic mushrooms are natural fungi that contain psilocybin, a powerful psychedelic compound known for expanding consciousness and shifting perception.

Used for centuries in indigenous ceremonies, these sacred fungi are now at the center of cutting-edge scientific research. Studies from top institutions like Johns Hopkins and Imperial College London show their potential to support deep healing and personal transformation.

Far from just a recreational substance, magic mushrooms are emerging as a key tool in the global psychedelic renaissance.

What Mushrooms Can Offer

People come to psilocybin experiences for many reasons:

  • gaining clarity during major life transitions

  • processing difficult emotions

  • exploring patterns and habits

  • deepening connection with nature

  • creativity and self-discovery

  • curiosity and personal growth

SAFETY FIRST

Safety is a central part of every Magic Hike experience. Good preparation plays a key role in creating the conditions for a safe and positive journey.

Certain medical conditions and medications may make psilocybin unsuitable. For this reason, all participants go through a screening process before being accepted for an experience.

Preparation begins before the day of the hike. You will receive detailed information about the experience, what to expect, and how to prepare.

On the day itself, we begin with a thorough briefing covering the effects of psilocybin, practical considerations, and ways to navigate the experience comfortably. Dosage is discussed and determined individually based on factors such as experience level, intentions, body weight, and personal preferences.

Throughout the experience, your guide remains present and attentive, ensuring your physical safety and providing support if needed.

Following the hike, we check in with you to help integrate the experience and remain available for further support and questions.

AFTER THE HIKE - INTEGRATION

After the hike, you will have the option to maximize the benefits of your journey through guided integration.

Psychedelic experiences often continue unfolding in the days and weeks that follow, bringing new insights, emotions, and questions.

To help you ground these reflections into daily life, I offer private, sliding-scale integration sessions.

Together, we can explore your experience and transform your insights into lasting benefits.
