It’s an adventure that leaves you feeling exhilarated, humbled, and deeply connected to the history of Peru.

The multi-day trek winds through majestic mountain passes, lush cloud forests, and fascinating ancient ruins. As you walk the same paths once used by the Incas, you're stepping directly into history.
