Peru Hiking Challenge
25 September-4 October 2010

Join Macmillan Cancer Support and hike the Inca Trail. From high, remote mountain trails to the first sight of the legendary Lost City of the Incas, Machu Picchu, this is a truly memorable trek. You'll climb steep trails all the way to 4,200m in fantastic and diverse mountainous country. The trek takes you through lush cloud forest, green valleys and high passes with breathtaking views of snow-capped Andean peaks. You'll also have time to stop and explore fascinating Inca temples and settlements along the way.
