This is a remote and ancient footpath located in the same region as the Inca Trail. Though located in the same region, it is less traveled than its counterpart. Likewise, it offers more spectacular views, that provide a magnificent wilderness alternative for those who wish to escape the more popular trekking routes is the Salcantay Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. We pass through an amazing progression of ecological zones, from sparsely vegetated alpine meadows flanking two spectacular 20,000' glaciated peaks, down through subtropical forest into the Inca Trail to arrive later to the "Lost city of the Incas", Machu Picchu. The suggested dates for this tour are from May through October, dry


If you will take the two excursion Inca Trail and the Salcantay trek w
e ask you  to fill the custumer regarding the commentaries  
or otherwise you can inform to the Operations Deparment and our staff at Orquidea Real Hostal about those activities.
