In November 2024, our team of intrepid Hospiscare Heroes will spend two days volunteering with a local community in the Sacred Valley and immersing themselves in daily life, while learning about local traditions and culture – before taking on one of the top 25 treks in the world!

The route follows ancient and remote Salkantay trail, where snow-capped mountains collide with lush tropical rain forests. Off the beaten path, this trek is one of the most interesting and challenging ways to experience the land of the ancient Incas. One of the highlights will be catching our first glimpse of Machu Picchu across the valley!
