Join the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu with Lama Glama Travel over five days. We will start early, between 4:00 and 5:00 A.M., with hotel pickup in Cusco’s historic center. The trek goes through mountains, high passes, and tropical valleys. Each day includes hiking, beautiful scenery, and cultural sights.
Along the way, we will visit Humantay Lake and cross the Salkantay Pass at 4,600 meters above sea level. We will hike down into cloud forests, passing small villages like Collpapampa and Lucmabamba. We will see local plants, wildlife, and remote Andean communities. There are also hot springs along the trail to rest and relax.
In the last few days, we will reach Aguas Calientes and get ready to visit Machu Picchu. Our guide will show us temples, terraces, and plazas, sharing stories about Inca culture, architecture, and astronomy. There will be plenty of chances to take amazing photos of the Andes and Machu Picchu.
After exploring Machu Picchu, we will return to Aguas Calientes and then take the train or bus back to Cusco. This five-day trek is full of hiking, nature, and culture, leaving us with great memories of the Andes and Inca Trail.
