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.
