The eastern slope of the Peruvian Andes is one of the most dramatic and diverse places on the planet, dropping from over 6000m (20,000ft) to just 200m above sea level. Combined with the countless Inca sites and ubiquitous Inca roads, this makes the Sacred Valley one of the best trekking and mountain biking destinations in the world.
Machu Picchu is well known as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and the Inca Trail trek that leads there is nearly as famous. What is less known, however, are the numerous other epic adventure trips that exist in the region - treks through soaring Andean glaciers and Incan ruins, bike rides through stunning alpine and jungle scenery, and one of the world's richest collections of archaeological and cultural treasures.
The routes in this guide describe the very best day and multi-day, walks and MTB routes, many previously unpublished, right across the Valley.
* 40 routes illustrated with custom mapping
* Includes many alternative routes to Machu Picchu, off the main tourist trail, which don't require a licensed guide or Incan trail permit
* Full background information on visiting the area, including how to hire bikes, guides and mules
