This train route
was awarded such as second rout most
beautiful of world. This spectacular
rail journey begins in historic Cuzco
and travels south to the beautiful city
of Puno, on the shores of Lake Titicaca.
On the journey, the train makes a gentle
climb to higher, and cooler, altitudes.
The first half of the journey is
dominated by the magnificent Andean
mountains which towers over the deep
valleys of the meandering Huatanay
River. It then reaches the gentler,
rolling Andean Plains, where vicuña and
alpaca can be seen. If traveling aboard
the Andean Explorer, the glass-walled
observation car provides the perfect
opportunity to view the beautiful
scenery.
