Rated top 20 treks in the world by National Geographic.

Deep in the Andes Mountains of Peru lies one of the most remote and least-hiked trails on earth, The Ancascocha Trek. Over 5 days, We traverse high-altitude passes around Salcantay Mountain, ancient Incan landscapes, and untouched wilderness in a journey that very few have ever filmed.

Shot in a cinematic, postcard style, this video blends ambient sound, immersive visuals, and expedition storytelling into something closer to a moving photograph than a travel video.

Guided by Killa Expeditions — one of Peru's premier expedition companies — every step of this trek was handled with expertise, care, and deep local knowledge. If this trail is on your radar, they are the team to do it with.
