Peru is one of the most fabulous places on the planet when it comes to trekking: the Andes are supremely beautiful – and in places, amazingly colorful. Nature and culture blends in a most beautiful and harmonious way. And the traces of past civilizations are also always there. However, most treks take place at high altitude, which requires a good fitness level and a bit of extra time for acclimatizing. 

Classic Inca Trail

Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu can be one of the most wonderful trekking experiences in South America. Taking you through the enchanting scenery of different landscapes and climates you will eventually arrive at the spectacular city of the Incas: Machu Picchu. The Classic Inca Trail remains the most popular trek in South America. (Fixed  departure)

Salcantay Trek

Due to overcrowding of the Inca Trail the Peruvian Park Authority has limited the numbers of visitors allowed on the trek at any one time. One of the best non-traditional routes leading to the famous Inca city of Machu Picchu is the trail known as the “Salcantay Machu Picchu Inca Route” or “Alternative Inca Trail”. This remote path leads us through an amazing variety of landscapes and habitats varying from green, rich valleys full of lush forests and trees of different species to highland fields and glacial moraines flanked by steep rocky and icy peaks of impressive beauty.

Salcantay Lodge-to-Lodge Trek

The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu has long been considered one of the best hikes in the world – and as a result, thousands of people are joining up on one of the camping tours that follow the footsteps of the ancient Incas. The Salcantay Lodge-to-Lodge offers a less crowded, more comfortable, although still challenging option, spending the nights at lodges as you take the Salcantay Route to Machu Picchu.

Choquequirao Trek

Choquequirao is perhaps one of the best-preserved major Inca ruins in southern Peru and rivaling in importance the world-famous Machu Picchu citadel. In fact, till the nineteenth century it was thought that Choquequirao might be the famous “Lost City of the Incas”. It is located in the Vilcabamba Range where trekking offers great opportunities to explore beyond the well-known hiking routes to Machu Picchu. This is a challenging and rewarding adventure: great landscapes, high mountain passes, amazing views, and impressive Inca ruins are waiting for us in the heart of the Andes.
