we went as far south as vilcabamba, which is also known as the valley of longevity because it has so many inhabitants over 100 years old. supposedly it's the water :)
about 45 minutes north of vicabamba is the podocarpus national park, named for the podocarpus tree which can grow to over 100 feet. we were on the lookout for a spectacled bear but unfortunately didn't see any wildlife. below are photos from the 5 hour hike that was way more intense than we thought it would be. was well worth it, though, for the incredible views.
