Our first glimpses of the Urubamba River, Macchu Pichu is on the other side of the mountain ridge to the left

Enjoying a very well-deserved beer after showers (luxury!)

Wiñaywayna Ruins, equally as spectacular as Machupicchu but not nearly as trampled



Dimas, Wilber and Keti, our excellent Llamapath guides

creepy crawly, millipede maybe?

Inca canals to divert water from rivers through settlements still function 500 years on...

spartacus I'm jealous - your trip looks awesome. I'm afraid I'll never have the endurance to make this hike - hopefully the train will be an acceptable alternative :)
