There are other methods of trekking to machupicchu. One is an extended hike that begins a genuine wilderness experience and chance to explore the slopes of Salkantay Mountain, the sacred mountain of the Incas. Salkantay is second highest mountain in Cusco region. One skirt east of the glaciers to join the Santa Teresa valley, in salkantay trek you can find several ecological zones, several flora and fauna. The sprawling, partially uncovered yet highly significant site at llactapata and the fact that trek finish’s on the doorstep of one the finish archaeological sites in the America are some compensation though.
