Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu
The Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu is a unique experience that immerses you in the majesty of the Andes and the rich cultural heritage of Peru. From the moment you descend into the vibrant Andean landscape, you are enveloped by the imposing snow-capped mountains. After days of adventure, the trek culminates in the emblematic citadel of Machu Picchu, where the legacy of the Incas is found in every stone. From the sunny Inti Punku (Sun Gate), the sight of Machu Picchu emerging from the mist is a moment of pure magic, which lingers in the memory. The Salkantay Trek is, without a doubt, a journey that transforms.
