Vilcabamba Trek
You can either end this trek in Machu Picchu or in Vilcabamba Espiritu Pampa–said to be the last stronghold of the Incan Empire during the final days of Inca civilization.

One of the most challenging treks that takes you across three mountain passes, snow-capped peaks, red deserts, and marshy pampas. You’re sure to encounter alpacas, condors, viscachas, Andean geese, vicuñas, bobcats, and even pumas!
The trek that’s packed with history, local flora and fauna, and authentic Andean villages that feel like you’ve been transported back in time when the Incas ruled.
Take the Huchuy Qosqo (or Little Cusco) Trek where you get a spectacular view of Inca temples, storehouses, Inca agricultural terraces, and Inca reservoirs as you are perched above the Sacred Valley.
This combination trek involving the Salkantay and Inca trails are only for the brave of heart, physically fit, and fully acclimatized trekker searching for a major physical challenge.
The Choquequirao trek is the perfect trail option if you prefer to test your trekking skills and desire an alternative destination to Mach Picchu. The Choquequirao Incan ruins are considered Machu Picchu’s sister city.
The Ancascocha Trail, one of the least known and more challenging routes, is definitely best suited for experienced hikers. It’s much less touristy, allowing trekkers to appreciate the serene atmosphere and soothing views.
