For trekkers wanting to get off the beaten tourist path and escape to a part of Peru that has changed little over the last 500 years, a trek through the spectacular scenery of the Lares Valley is a must. This remote and rarely visited region offers the trekker an insight into the real lives of the Andean farmer, dressed in their traditional brightly colored ponchos. You’ll have the opportunity to see thatched stone houses surrounded by herds of llamas and alpacas, while inside the houses you’ll see guinea pigs running loose. The trek itself is rated at moderate difficulty- similar to the Inca Trail. There are, however, two passes over 4000 meters above sea level, so it is essential that you are well acclimatized to the altitude before starting the trek. If you wish, after your trek you can easily continue to Aguas Calientes by train to visit Machu Picchu the next morning. Otherwise you will be transferred back to your comfortable hotel in Cuzco.
