    Salkantay trek

    The Salkantay trek has been an experience I will never forget. This was my first real hiking / camping experience. I had read many blogs, but still had no idea what to expect when we were picked up early in Cusco. Our first day was filled with amazing views of the Humantay Glacier, as well…

    Salkankay

    Ich wusste ja gar nicht, wieviel ich an einem Tag wandern kann. Jetzt weiß ich es! Nach einem Aufwärmtag mit einer eiskalten Nacht zwischen Gipfeln, Pferden und anderen Wanderern, hoch auf 4630 Meter hochgewandert zum Fuß des Salkankay: Eine unbeschreibliche Erfahrung! Völlig fertig aber glücklich, außer Atem und erschöpft steht man vor diesem riesigen Berg…

    Wind und palmen

    Ohne einen Vergleich zu haben, kann ich den Salkantay Trek sehr empfehlen. Wir haben die 5-Tage/4-Naechte-Variante gewaehlt. Der erste Tag, die Wanderung nach Soraypampa, war sehr entspannt und belohnte uns mit toller Aussicht und einem rau-unwirklichen Campingplatz. Am zweiten Tag stand schon der mit Abstand ansrengendste Aufstieg an: die Ueberquerung des Salkantay Passes. Wir stiegen…

    Salkantay war wahnsinn

    Der Salkantay Trek war unglaublich. Ich kann ihn jedem empfehlen. Um mit unserem Guide zu beginnen, wir verbrachten 5 Tage mit Carlos, er war grossartig. Abgesehen von seiner guten Laune und Energie konnte er uns wirklich viel ueber die Landschaft, Natur, Pflanzen und seine Inkavorfahren berichten. Niemals fuehlte man sich gestresst von ihm um weiter…

    Salkantay trek

    Bellissima avventura in mezzo alla natura incontaminata! Molto dura, in particolar modo il secondo giorno, il che però rende il tutto molto più gratificante. I panorami sono davvero mozzafiato e lasciano senza parole. La partr che ho preferito è senza alcun dubbio quella del secondo giorno dove abbiamo scalato il monte Salkantay , arrivando ad…
