Salkantay trek 2 days

We will pick you up from your hotel at 5:445am and drive by our private vehicle for 2 hours to Mollepata village where we will have breakfast and a short rest to continue the journey to Soraypampa where our camping equipment, muleteers and horses our Carry luggage, wait for us.

From Soraypampa we hike uphill to Humantay Lagoon, the hike takes about an hour and a half. Arriving at the Lagoon we can admire the beauty of Humantay Lagoon at the foot of the snowy Humantay, after exploring the Lagoon we start the descent to Soraypampa and settle into our exclusive camp where a delicious lunch awaits us and we can rest .

If you still have strength and energy, you can take the opportunity to climb up to the Salkantay viewpoint, from where you have a beautiful view of the entire Andean valley. If you are tired, you can rest in our camp or take small hikes in the region to get to know the area better.

After a night at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, we wake up with a hot drink and then have our nutritious breakfast prepared by our chef towards dawn.

We start our trek to the highest point of the Salkantay Trail (4630m asl) where we can enjoy a beautiful view of the mountains and visit the Salkantay Lake; this hike is more difficult than that of the first day.

We hike uphill at a steady pace for 3 to 4 hours from where we can admire the majesty of the mountain and the entire valley. At the summit we can participate in an Andean sacrificial ritual for the Pacha Mama and the Patron Saint. After the visit we return downhill to Soraypampa where we take our transport back to Mollepata where we can have lunch.

After lunch we will drive to the city of Cusco, where we will arrive around 6:00 p.m.
