A packing list of supplies needed for the Salkantay Trek through the Andes to South America's biggest attraction: Machu Picchu

With so many trekking companies in South America offering the Salkantay Trek to Macchu Pichu, how do you choose the best one for you?

An alternative to the Classic Inca Trail, The Salkantay Trek takes you through stunning and varied landscapes high in the South American Andes and ends at Machu Picchu.

As the Inca Trail becomes more crowded and more expensive, hikers are becoming more adventurous and exploring the other great trails and senderos in the Sacred Valley.

For a manageable South American mountain climbing experience, hike up past Machu Picchu to a panoramic, bird's eye view of the lost Inca city and the surrounding Andes.
