We will be heading to Machu Picchu, Peru, after three days acclimatising and getting involved with hands-on tasks which can include painting, gardening and small building works through the community project, we will then start the trek. Trekking along the Salkantay Inca Trail, acknowledged by National Geographic Adventure Travel Magazine as one of the 25 best treks in the world. This trek is graded ‘challenging’ because we will be trekking over varying terrain, being exposed to high altitude (up to 4600m) and camping in basic campsites. We need to be prepared for all weather conditions and variable temperatures. We will trek, between 6 and 8 hours per day (variable depending on group pace) along hilly terrains. The activity level is high (and don’t forget the physical toll of the work we will do at the project before the trek commences), we're excited to push ourselves and for the challenge! As well as raising money for an amazing charity and hospice like St Oswald's!

Thank you!
