Ancascocha: The Hidden Inca Trail

The Ancascocha Trek, often called the “Hidden Inca Trail,” is one of Peru’s most stunning and less-traveled hiking routes. Passing through remote Andean villages, crystal-clear lakes, and towering snow-capped peaks, this trail offers breathtaking views and an authentic connection to local culture. Recognized by National Geographic as one of the world’s best hikes, Ancascocha is perfect for travelers seeking both challenge and solitude.

Why Choose the Ancascocha Trek:

  • Off-the-Beaten-Path: Far fewer crowds than the classic Inca Trail.

  • Epic Scenery: Lakes, glaciers, valleys, and mountain passes.

  • Cultural Encounters: Interact with traditional Andean communities.

  • Machu Picchu Connection: Can be combined with visits to the citadel.
