About the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu
The Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu is one of the most popular hiking trails in South America and named one of the 25 best hiking trails in the world. It's marginally less popular than the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and offers a different way to reach Machu Picchu. The Salkantay Trey Starts at Cusco, from where you will take public transport to Mollepata, Challacancha, or Soraypampa. Then it goes 37 miles through tropical forests, misty, snow-capped mountain peaks, blue lagoons, and traditional Peruvian villages until it finally reaches Machu Picchu.
