Diverse views over the cloud forest, narrow paths that have been trodden by the Incas for centuries and partly adventurous crossings of rivers, waterfalls or streams make this part of the Salcantay trek an unforgettable experience.
In the particularly diverse ecosystem cloud forest and there are thousands of plants and orchids, some of which are still waiting to be discovered. The same applies to the animal world, with a little attention and luck, a hummingbird can be discovered.

After leaving the icy peaks of the Salkantay behind you the day before, you can enjoy the view of a green valley, nourished by the Rio Santa Teresa, which flows happily through the rock here.
