SALKANTAY 4 DAYS TREK TO MACHU PICCHU

Salkantay Trek 4 Days to Machu Picchu: An Efficient and Memorable Adventure Embark on a breathtaking journey with our 4-day Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu, perfect for those seeking the essence of the Salkantay experience in a shorter timeframe. This trek is designed to offer an immersive adventure through the stunning landscapes of the Salkantay mountains and glaciers, condensed into four action-packed days. Your adventure starts with the awe-inspiring Humantay Lagoon on day one, followed by a peaceful night at the serene Quiswarniyoc private camp. On the second day, you'll face the challenge of reaching the highest point of the trek, the majestic Salkantay Pass at 4700 meters, before descending to the welcoming Chawllay campsite. The third day takes you through the captivating Santa Teresa Valley, rich with local agriculture, leading to your evening arrival in Aguas Calientes. This sets the stage for the grand finale: exploring the iconic Machu Picchu on day four. The 4-day Salkantay Trek is tailored for efficiency, differing from the 5-day version in its pace and focus. While the 5-day trek includes leisurely activities like soaking in hot springs and trekking to the Llactapata viewpoint of Machu Picchu, the 4-day variant optimizes your time by omitting these activities to ensure a timely arrival at Machu Picchu. This makes it the ideal option for those with limited time who still want to experience the natural beauty and cultural richness of the Salkantay trail and the majestic Machu Picchu.
