After an amazing tour of Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley, we head up to Lake Titicaca via the Andahuaylillas Valley and the central highlands. Our journey today will take about 8 hours, and we need the rest after some strenuous hikes at Machu Picchu. I think this group is still overwhelmed by the beauty and grandeur of our Machu Pichhu experience, so this trip is a much needed relaxing day to reflect on our accomplishments.
Peru is a spectacular place with a tremendous amount of diversity. There are 103 different ecosystems in the world and Peru has 84 of them. There are 32 different climate systems in the world and 28 can be found in Peru. It is the the most ecologically diverse country in the world. There are jungles, cloud forests, deserts, glaciers, mountains, and much more. Lake Titicaca is just one of those fascinating places in Peru that never fails to amaze me.
