The Apu Salkantay, also known as the warrior and protective Apu of the Inca Empire. Considered the center that guides the road to the Suyos, in its imposing majesty you see all the savagery of the virgin snow can show us rising up to 6,271 m.a.s.l. of height, which breaks the chain of Vilcabamba, where it joins the fantasy of the Andes, where the sunrises and sunsets create a spectacle of greatness and mystery, taking different nuances in each of its four perfectly oriented and defined faces that produce progressive changes of flora, and typical fauna of the Andes.
