Akatrek connects you with Peruvian guides who can take you beyond Machu Picchu — to Choquequirao, the Rainbow Mountain, the floating islands of Lake Titicaca, and jungle lodges in the Madre de Dios.

Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca), at 5,200 meters above sea level near Cusco, displays natural stripes of red, yellow, green, white, and turquoise caused by different minerals. The 6-hour round trip trek offers panoramic Andean views that make every step worthwhile.
