Early with first light of day at 05:30 a.m. and a quick breakfast, we will begin walking to the highest point of the trail: before starting the walk you will have the option of renting a horse if you have problems with altitude sickness (not included), the Salkantay Pass 4630 m.a.s.l. The distance is 7 km of ascent in 3 hours between the base of the rocky valley and the magnificent Salkantay mountain 6271 meters above sea level. When we reach the top of the pass, we will appreciate the spectacular views of the surrounding valleys and the imposing snow-capped peaks of Salkantay, Humantay, Tucarhuay and Pumasillo.

This is a 10 km (6.2 mile) walk and is a wide trail in a dense and magical tropical forest. During this part of the hike, you will notice a dramatic change in the landscape. This walk is truly beautiful; The hills are decorated with colorful landscapes, wildlife and native plants. The forests are warm and tropical most of the year with temperate climates. At the end of this exceptional hike, we arrive at Chaullay 2900 meters above sea level, for a well-deserved rest from our long day of hiking.
