In a country approximately 3 times the size of California, Peru has a dizzying variety of landscapes, from the arid desert coast to the Amazon rainforest and the verdant peaks of Machu Picchu. The entire center of the country is dominated by the Andes Mountains, and features some of the most impressive and foreboding peaks on the planet, over thirty of which rise more than 6000 meters in elevation.
The way to experience these mountains is on foot, and Peru is home to a number of world renowned treks which link remote mountain villages, lakes and meadows via high passes where the air is rare and the views are to die for.
A lung-taxing wander up a game trail above Lake Jauacocha provided an incredible panoramic view stretching from the otherworldly summits of Runtuy and Jirishanca to the azure lakes and lush hills and valleys stretching for miles below.
