One of the nicer bridges along the route. It moves around a little, but it's well built.
Making our way up from La Playa to Lucma Lodge.

Making our way through the groves of coffee plants to Lucma Lodge.
Lucma lodge. No heating system - doesn't need one.
A view down into the valley as we work our way around the hill toward Machu Picchu. Part of this trail is on the old Inca trail system, and if you look closely you can see the stonework. There is a classic hike to Machu Picchu called the "Inca Trail" but, in reality, the area is full of Inca trails.
This section of the trail feels like jungle. Dense green vegetation, lots of moss, and lots of plant variety.
One of the reasons people take the Salkantay route to Machu Picchu is that you get a unique view of the ruins that few people see. Here, in the upper middle section of the photo, is our first view of Machu Picchu. You can see the terracing on the downslope.
