COMPETITIVE EDGE


5–15 MAY TREK TO MACHU PICCHU


Cost £42.50 plus a minimum £100 sponsorship Venue Peru Summary The Peruvian Andes are arguably the most beautiful on the continent, home to millions of highland Indians who still speak the ancient tongue of Quechua. Across the Divide has created a unique route which it has exclusive permission to use, away from the hustle and bustle of the main Inca Trail. The trekking route passes through hidden valleys,


mountain passes, along long-forgotten Inca trails, and through small villages where they still follow traditional methods of farming. The trek ends at the stunning sacred city of Machu Picchu, entering through the Sun Gate for a spectacular photo opportunity. The trip ends in Cuzco – a vibrant town full of beautiful architecture. Participants can choose to raise funds for any one of a large number of charities supporting the event.
