41 thinking about the hikers´ good rest, the Tour Operator has built four comfortable mountain lodges, along the route. Every lodge offers different and exceptional views of the Apu Ausangate, and all of them were built according to ecological criteria, in harmony with their natural surroundings, as well as with the local architectural style and culture´s aesthetics. Choquequirao Trek Hike from 4 to 5 days Choquequirao means "cradle of gold" in Quechua although this is probably not its original Inca name. It is another "lost city of the Incas" located high on a ridge spur almost 1750m above the raging glacier-fed Apurimac River and surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks. The US explorer Gary Ziegler suggests that Choquequirao may have been the place where the last Inca, Tupac Amaru, was raised among Inca Priestesses. The abundance of many double jamb doorways and niches indicates that the place was held in high status. Trek Salkantay - Santa Teresa - Machu Picchu Hikes from 4 to 6 days This trek is often referred as the "alternative Inca Trail". Although many guide books and travel agencies often describe this route as "the-road-less-travelled" or a great trek to "get away from the crowds" this can be misleading. There is currently no control over the maximum number of trekkers so during the peak season (June - September) there can sometimes be more trekkers than the Classic Inca Trail and each year it is becoming more popular especially with Latin American visitors
42 TRUJILLO AND CHICLAYO – NORTH PERU GIARDINO Trujillo, the capital of La Libertad department, is the third-largest city in Peru. The Moche and Chimu, two pre-Inca cultures, had great influence in this area. The city itself has an attractive colonial city centre and around town there are some very interesting archaeological sites such as the Chimu mud-city of Chan Chan, a monumental adobe complex of royal palaces covering more than 52 sq. km (20 sq. miles). Also it is fascinating to visit the Temples of the Moon and Sun (Huacas del Sol y de la Luna), built by the Moche culture around A.D. 500. The beaches of Huanchaco, half an hour’s drive from Trujillo, are ideal for a spot of relaxation. Local fishermen still catch fish here with reed boats (totora), just as they did long, long ago The city of Chiclayo itself may not have much to offer, the region are probably most well known for their archaeological sites and treasures, such as Sipan, Túcume, Batán Grande and Huaca Rajada.
