Phaq'u (Aymara for light brown, reddish, hispanicized spelling Pajo) or Paqu (Quechua for alpaca) is a mountain in the Willkanuta mountain range in the Andes of Peru, about 5,400 metres (17,717 ft) high. It is located in the Cusco Region, Canchis Province, Pitumarca District, northwest of Siwinaqucha.
