PERU ECO CAMP
THE BEST WAY TO EXPERIENCE SALKANTAY & MACHU PICCHU
Peru Ecocamp offers the first private sustainable luxury glamping experience that will bring you in close contact with Andean culture thanks to our experienced guides. This ecological adventure will take you hiking along the Salkantay trail, across pristine mountainsides while sighting condors, passing Glacial Lakes like Humantay, visiting picturesque villages, and ancient Inca citadels like Machu Picchu. In addition to this, we have incorporated a strategic gourmet dining experience in accord to each ecocamps altitude, as well as additional eco-friendly activities.
5 strategically located Ecocamps along the Salkantay Trek en route to Machu Picchu, within the great Vilcabamba mountain range
THE ECOCAMPS
Five Ecocamps on the route to Machu Picchu. All of them are strategically located along the Salkantay Trail, within the great Vilcabamba mountain range. Every Ecocamp has eight 28m² dome tents and are equipped with a Dining Dome and a Lobby Bar Dome.
PINCOPATA ECOCAMP
- Our first Ecocamp is located ten minutes away from the quiet town of Mollepata in the province of Limatambo. Using green technology, it offers the area’s first 100% sustainable camping experience.
The camp boasts beautiful green lawns and plenty of local flowers planted across the whole area. The large fire pit in a quiet corner of the camp allows for the perfect place for stargazing.
SORAY ECOCAMP
- Soray is our second Ecocamp and a 45-minute drive or day trekking from Pincopata. Soraypampa is the beautiful and peaceful area that is only home to a few campsites and our Ecocamp, overlooked by both the Sacred Humantay and Salkantay mountains.
Due to the altitude and the cooler temperatures, the environment in Soray Ecocamp is very different to Pincopata, and gives the opportunity to experience a different ecosystem. It offers wonderful views to the snow-capped mountains.
HUMANTAY ECOCAMP
- Humantay is the highest of all the Ecocamps sitting at 3,900 m / 12,792 ft. It is also the coldest camp due to the altitude. It is located on a flat expanse of pampa watched over by Mount Humantay.
MILPO ECOCAMP
- The beautiful Ecocamp is the only accommodation offered in the area. The exclusive route between Huayra and Milpo means that you will not meet any other travelers along the way. The camp is located in the cloud forest region, offering the chance to spot endemic orchid species right amongst the domes. The domes all face the valley across the river, a very peaceful and tranquil area, where the only sound comes from the river in the basin below.
CAFE ECOCAMP
- The final Ecocamp is located in the small town of Lucamabamba, in the Santa Teresa Valley. It is surrounded by local farms producing a variety of produce from coffee to exotic tropical fruits and honey.

THE DOMES
HOME SWEET DOMES
Planted with organic gardens, using solar energy and natural water sources, our Ecocamps offer guests a luxurious camping experience in a natural setting, while reducing our environmental impact to an absolute minimum.
All domes are 28m² and include either a king-size bed or 2 twin beds. They are fully equipped with a private bathroom (toilet, sink, & a hydromassage shower), wood burning stove and enough blankets to keep you warm. Dinner and drinks are served in the dining dome or our lobby/bar dome. Experience luxurious accommodation and typical Andean food prepared using local, fresh and organic ingredients.
Done hiking, but in for more? We offer several extra activities in and around the ecocamps, such as horseback riding, cooking classes and yoga.
GREEN
- Our camps are powered by solar energy and water turbine systems.
- The water is filtered and treated with UV light, so it is safe to drink the tap water. This reduces the use of plastic bottles.
- We count 2 flush systems in each toilet: liquid waste is first filtered and then goes back into the ground. The whole waste goes into a container with a biodegradable system. Once a year, this container is emptied, and the compost is used for reforestation progress.
- To grow our vegetables, we use organic fertilizers and compost produced by the waste of fruits and vegetables from our kitchen
- Our kitchens and bathrooms use organic non-detergent products.
- Our camps contain all the facilities needed. In this way, we are reducing the wearing down, destructure and pollution of the route.
