We leave Cusco early in our private van, crossing magnificent Andean landscapes with stops at Mollepata and the archaeological site of Killarumiyuc, known as the "cradle of Inca astronomy".
After an invigorating breakfast we begin our hike towards Humantay lake and Soyrococha, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and sacred mountains.
We spend the night at the foot of the imposing Apu Salkantay, enjoying its mystical presence under a starry sky.
At dawn we admire the majestic Salkantay glacier. After a hearty breakfast we reach the Salkantay pass (4,600 m), the highest point of the route, where breathtaking panoramas over glaciers, turquoise lakes and valleys leave us speechless.
We begin the descent through varied terrain, crossing the cloud forest, until we reach the community of Collpapampa, where a local family welcomes us for a warm dinner.
We venture into the lush cloud forest, rich in exceptional biodiversity and varied microclimates. We walk among coffee, banana, avocado and tea plantations, and discover the daily life of local communities.
Here we have the chance to take part in harvesting local produce and learn about organic coffee production. We end the day at Lucmabamba, staying with a host family.
We start the day with the climb to Llactapata (2,740 m), an impressive archaeological site offering a unique panoramic view of Machu Picchu, surrounded by green mountains and the winding Urubamba river.
After enjoying this privileged moment we descend through trails lined with dense vegetation to Hidroelectrica, where we take the train to Aguas Calientes to rest in a comfortable hotel.
Early in the morning we take the first bus to Machu Picchu, where we watch the sunrise over the Inca citadel. On the guided tour we explore the temples, terraces and sacred squares, and uncover the secrets of this wonder of the world.
After an unforgettable excursion we head down to Aguas Calientes (2,050 m), have lunch and take the train back to Cusco, the finale of this unforgettable journey.
