点评:Took the Ausangate 7 Lakes Full Day tour with Ricardo at Salkantay Trekking in December 2024 and had the perfect day! This hike isn't widely guided at this time of the year due to it being the rainy season/a low season for hikers, but Salkantay Trekking was able to get me onto a tour when other guiding companies were not able to. Ricard was an incredible guide - he enthusiastically answered all of my questions, was a bridge between us and the local community, had a great sense of humor, and was super encouraging! I very much appreciated the little things - like coming to my hard to find hotel so I wouldn't have to walk in the dark as a solo traveler, carrying electrolytes for altitude sickness, giving bread to the local children, good chats, etc.
If you're thinking about doing this hike, and aren't sure, do it! I found it easiest to stop into the trekking office in Cusco to chat with the tour coordinators. Do make sure to acclimatize for at least 2 days in Cusco before attempting!
翻译:2024 年 12 月,我和 Ricardo 一起参加了 Salkantay Trekking 的 Ausangate 7 湖全日游,度过了完美的一天!由于正值雨季/徒步旅行者的淡季,一年中的这个时候,这项徒步旅行并没有得到广泛的指导,但当其他指导公司无法让我参加旅行时,Salkantay Trekking 却让我参加了一次旅行。Ricard 是一位了不起的导游——他热情地回答了我所有的问题,是我们和当地社区之间的桥梁,很有幽默感,而且非常鼓舞人心!我非常感谢这些小事——比如来到我很难找到的酒店,这样我就不必作为一个独自旅行者在黑暗中行走,携带电解质以缓解高原反应,给当地的孩子面包,聊天,等等。
如果你正在考虑进行这次徒步旅行,但不确定,那就去吧!我发现最简单的方法是去库斯科的徒步旅行办公室和旅游协调员聊天。尝试之前请确保在库斯科至少适应两天的环境!
