Wander among the ancient Incan ruins of Machu Picchu. Although some travelers may choose to arrive at the ruins by train, backpacking the 44.5 mile Salkantay Trek allows you to explore Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu in ways many never get to experience. This journey takes about 5 days, and once you reach Machu Picchu, you'll see that it's every bit as magnificent as you've heard.
