Itinerary description
Epic and beautiful route up past waterfalls and on up to Inca ruins, then back down round the other side of the valley back to the start. And no people!
Be aware it's continuous uphill till you get to the ruin, you need decent fitness to make it.

Epic viewpoint with great energy on some awesome green altar rocks. These where made from one rock which was carried up but not used. You can see how the Incas split it into 3 parts.. but didn't end up using them.

Into the eucalyptus forest. Watch for a narrow path left as the trees start to thin out (further than this point)
