If the idea of the camping-based Inca Trail does not appeal, Mountain Lodges of Peru offer a variety of lodge-based treks. The most popular is the seven day Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu. There are also shorter trekking options in the little-visited Lares region north of Cusco. With both of these options you will experience the beauty of the Peruvian landscape and its rugged elements whilst ending each days in a cosy and comfortable lodge with hot showers, gourmet meals, select wines and goose-down bedding.
