Overview

Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 5 Day Salkantay Trek & Machu Picchu. Salkantay has been dubbed the most spectacular peak in the Peruvian Andes. On this trip, you’ll trek in the shadows of this impressive mountain, interact with its inhabitants, and explore its forgotten ruins. Catch the train to Aguas Calientes for an early-morning visit to Machu Picchu.

Itinerary

Arrive Cusco at any time. There are no planned activities so check into the hotel and enjoy the city. Our best advice for exploring Cusco is to wear a comfortable pair of shoes, arm yourself with a city map, and set off to explore! Meet the group at the welcome meeting, check for the start time on the welcome note at the hotel. Stay: Hotel de la Villa Hermoza

Depart Cusco and transfer to the start of the trail to begin the Salkantay Trek. The day’s hike will begin with the hike up to the incredibly beautiful Humantay Lake. Witness the serene views of the crystalline blue water and spend the night camping under the stars. (B/L/D)

Stunning views fill the day as you hike past the striking snow-capped mountains of Vilcabamba mountain range. Traverse the highest point, Salkantay pass reaching 4,600m (15,092 ft) before descending into valleys nestled in the mountains to the town of Collpabamba. Set up camp for the evening surrounded by lush cloud forest. (B/L/D)

Hike to the Inca site Llactapata, where you can catch your first glimpse of Machu Picchu. Catch the train in the afternoon to Aguas Calientes. Stay: Hotel Wiracocha Inn (B/L)

Enjoy a guided tour of Machu Picchu then return to Cusco where the tour ends upon arrival. (B)
