Day 1
We then cross the mountains, pass pretty alpine lakes, and pastures where llamas graze. Campesino farmers also grow potatoes here. We then follow an Inca trail downward to a village of stone huts, with thatched straw on their roofs. From here we pass through a narrow but spectacular canyon and arrive with wonderful views over the Sacred Valley. After about 8 hours of walking, we camp in the ruins of Huchuy Qosqo, where we will relax, talk of the Incas and spend the night. Day 2 Alternatively, we can escort you to Ollantaytambo to take the Tren Cerrojo (Backpacker Train - the cheapest train option) to Aguas Calientes and the mysterious ruins of Machu Picchu.
