Coming into the first day of this trip (during dry season) I never expected it to snow.
Everyone told me that the second day would be the hardest but climbing that mountain in what felt like a blizzard was the hardest thing I've ever done.
I wanted to give up multiple times but there was no greater feeling ... Continue Reading

I was basically coerced into this trek by an adventurous friend of mine. I was not quite sure if I would be able to handle the physical challenges of the trip after reading some reviews.
Well, I'm here to tell you that I made it - thanks to my guide Juan Carlos and encouraging members of the ... Continue Reading
Memories all started in Mollepata where glaciers and wild horses filled our sight. We met the wonderful Alessandro and Anne Marie as they provided us with their caring and supporting ways.

When I began this trek, I believed that I was a man amongst boys with my athletic and mental prowess.
I did absolutely no training except running in video games and from girls in my dreams. I arrived in Cusco with my head held high and the thinner air in my lungs ready to tackle the small peak ... Continue Reading
We wanted to book the inca trek but It was full so we booked the Salkantay trek instead. I was glad we did. The variety of climates and vegetation was amazing.

I came because of my friend and was pleasantly surprised on how hard this trek actually was. We originally were going to try the inca trail, but it was sold out.
As a result, we booked hate more difficult Salkantay trek which turned out to be the better decision in our minds. Although, the trek was very physically demanding, ... Continue Reading

Es war ein super Trek! Unser Guide hatte immer ein Witz auf Lager, spannendes über Land, Kultur und Volk zu erzählen und kümmerte sich immer um uns!.Der Weg war steil, gut und wegen dem Wetter manchmal rutschig :-).
Am ersten Tag ging es erst kurz hoch, dann alles flach, dem kleinen Wasserkanal entlang! Danach gab es Lunch ... Continue Reading
