Andes Adventures

With Santa Monica-based Andes Adventures, there's no limit to how much you can push yourself physically while trekking in South America. You have the option of running the Inca Trail instead of hiking it. And for the most ambitious, there's a post-Machu Picchu extension to 20,905-foot Mount Ausangate, home to Peru's most traditional indigenous people. Or you can scale things back by hiking from lodge to lodge in Patagonia.
