This fantastic hike combines two of the most spectacular trekking routes in the Machu Picchu Historical Sanctuary. An extraordinary altitudinal range (1,725 to 6,271m/5,700-20,700ft) makes the sanctuary one of the most biodiversity areas in the world, with ten distinct life zones. Our adventure begins on the slopes of Mt. Salkantay with its glaciers, lagoons and 5,000meter pass (16,500ft), home to the majestic condors and Andean chinchillas. From here we descend to the high Andean plateaus - breeding areas for alpacas, before entering the famous Inca Trail to the lost city of the Incas: Legendary Machu Picchu. An incredible ecological diversity of snow peaks, Andes and rich cloud forest, combined with the most astonishing archaeological sites on the way make this adventure a breathtaking experience!
