Beyond the Andes | Hiking the Andes Mountains in Peru for Five Days

Five days of relaxing silent hiking through the authentic Andes Mountains in Peru close to Rainbow Mountain. Join me and my friend Brian on our hike as we experience authentic Peruvian village life, interview a few local people about their daily life in remote villages, and go hiking with dogs, alpacas, and llamas through breathtaking valleys and over awe-inspiring rainbow mountain passes. Throughout my journey here, I was constantly reminded of the Nepal Himalayas: from the warm villagers, to the cold and snowy giants. Trek was in October 2023. 🗺️ Hiking Guide: https://nicholaseager.com/g/ausangate 📸 Gear I use: https://nicholaseager.com/gear 💛 Support More Adventures: https://ko-fi.com/nicholaseager 🎬 Behind the Scenes: https://www.instagram.com/nicholas.eager/ --- 🚶🏻‍♂️Hike Club Cusco: https://www.hikeclubcusco.com/ Special thanks to Cody at Hike Club Cusco for hosting me and helping me plan my hikes while in Cusco.
