Machu Picchu, (Quechua or "old mountain") Peru is the ultimate destination and the highlight of our journey...
Often referred to as "The Lost City of the Incas", it is situated at 2,400m on a mountain ridge overlooking the Urubamba Valley in Peru,built around 1450 but abandoned with the Spanish conquest of the Inca empire...Years later the site was brought to world attention in 1911 by Mr Hiram Bingham, American Historian. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 and is also one of the New Wonders of the World ....

On April 20th 2008, five of us set out to conquer the mountains, embrace the fascinating nature around, to pull thru' the "moh tak teng" freezing cold nights at camp sites, to withstand the extreme high UV rays at above 3,000 m.a.s.l., and to endure the never-ending Inka trails ........and much more...and yes oops ! .. to survive each other !

After 4 days on the Inka Trail , the breath-taking view of the citadel from Inti Punku ( "Sun Gate" ) was simply awesome.
The magnificent and spectacular view of the " kingdom above the clouds " is beyond words to describe the overwhelming feelings that came over us. ......
In mystical Peru, you are completely immersed within the nurturing energies of Pachamama, Mother Earth !
