Salkantay Trek Day 3: to Santa Teresa

Walking distance: 16km, approximately 5 hours of hiking.

Today, we were woken up again around 5:30am with warm coca tea in bed.

The day started with a leisurely hike along the Salkantay river and a beautiful rainforest landscape, where we spotted a hummingbird and many waterfalls! 🐦

At the end of the trail, a van awaited to transport us to our camp with a few pit stops along the way. These breaks treated us to a mix of experiences: from savouring fresh fruits to sampling unique concoctions of alcohol infused with intriguing ingredients as well as local coffee. ☕️

Once at camp, we got to enjoy lunch and rest for a bit before heading out to the Cocalmayo hot springs. The remainder of the afternoon was a blissful relaxation, creating unforgettable memories in this breathtaking setting and on the journey back! 🪩
