I spend five days on the Salkantay trek . Unfortunately my friend and I started the trip sick. We had cold and only 3 hours of sleep . After a short bus ride , we started hiking . It was a steep way and super exhausting . The first hight was like a hightware . Everyone had the altitude sickness and throwing up . My friend and i took a horse the next day. The weather during the trip was pretty good . The rain jacket was a good purchased and i weared it all the time. The trip was so funny and the whole group enjoyed their time . I love Salkantay trek .
