Machu Picchu trek for scoliosis - Day 4: Hiking the Ancascocha Trail - day 2 | Life with Scoliosis

Описание: In October 2023, I took on my biggest challenge - a 4-day charity trek to Machu Picchu, Peru, with Charity Challenge, to raise money for the Scoliosis Association UK.

This video is a vlog of day 4 - the 2nd day of the 4-day trek via the Ancascocha Trail, which took us up to 4,600m above sea level.

We hiked the Ancascocha Trail to Macchu Picchu, an alternative route to the popular (and much busier!) Inca Trail.
