This Trek Was Recently Named among the 25 best Treks in the World, by National Geographic Adventure Travel Magazine.

SALCANTAY / INCA TRAIL TO MACHUPICCHU (6D / 5N)

A remote and ancient footpath in the same region of the Inca trail, but less traveled and offering more spectacular views.  This route provides a magnificent wilderness alternative for those who wish to escape the more congested trekking routes.

On the trail, we pass through an amazing progression of ecological zones, from sparsely vegetated alpine meadows flanking two spectacular 20,000' glaciered peaks, down through subtropical forest into the Inca Trail.  We arrive later to the "Lost City of the Incas¨, MachuPicchu.
