Download or read book Tracing Inca Trails written by Eddy Ancinas and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eddy Ancinas and her friends set out on on a seven-day horseback trip that takes them over Peru’s rugged terrain to 20,574-foot-high Mt. Salcantay, along an ancient Inca route, and then down into the jungle. During this journey, these fifty-something travelers are challenged by events they never imagined possible: a fall from a horse that results in serious injuries, a train strike that leaves them stranded in a remote village, an eight-hour trek on railroad tracks along the Urubamba River, and a moonlight ride in the back of a truck with questionable brakes on a dirt road over a 14,000-foot pass, among others. It is a journey full of mishaps—and yet Eddy is enchanted by the culture and places she experiences along the way. As she and her fellow travelers explore Lima, Cusco, and the markets, villages, and ruins of the Urubamba Valley, they are deeply touched by the people they meet, fascinated by the clues to an ancient civilization they learn to respect and admire, and enthralled by the spectacular setting where it all takes place: Andean Peru.

Download or read book Inca Trail to Machu Picchu written by Joel Paul Reisig and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-22 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're looking for a textbook to really dig deeply into the Inca culture, the history of Machu Pichu, and the evolution of the modern sub species of llamas, this ain't it. Put this rag down and go buy a real book. What you are holding is a humorous travel log, it is a short and easy read. This is the reality of what it is like to actually hike the pathways of the Incas exactly how they did six hundred years ago, assuming they had porters running ahead of them to set up their tents, cook their meals, clean their toilets, administer oxygen, remind them to put on sunscreen, and pose them for pictures. It is an account of sixteen first world tourists on a quest for social media photos. In between humorous antidotes I will attempt to, quickly, slip in some history, local facts, and culture. Don't worry, you'll hardly feel it.
