Salkantay Trek

We had the privilege of climbing the Salkantay Trek in Peru. This Ancient Inca trail ultimately ended up ah Machu Picchu. This four day hiking trip was challenging but amazing at the same time. We chose this route to Machu Picchu because it gave us the opportunity to summit three mountains.

After reaching the first refugee where we set up camp for the night. Paulina and I were able to climb the humanity mountain. The summit was a 1,000 meter higher than our camp site and since we set up camp at noon we jumped at the opportunity to climb it.

Day Two of the climb we summited the Salkantay Mountain. Paulina and I had this overwhelming felling of excitement and accomplishment. This was definitely one for the books.
