										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many travelers want to see the famous blue waters, but they worry about the physical toll. The trail reaches a high altitude of 4,200 meters (13,779 feet). At this height, the oxygen levels drop significantly. Consequently, breathing here feels like trying to sip a thick milkshake through a tiny coffee straw. Your lungs have to work much harder just to take a normal step. Without proper support, this hike can turn into an exhausting struggle. Therefore, we designed a guided trek focused entirely on your personal safety and steady pacing. We carry first aid kits and emergency oxygen tanks on every single trip. Our guides monitor your health so you can hike safely without fear.</p>
<p>Additionally, the visual reward at the top makes the effort completely worth it. You will stand in front of a giant pool of bright turquoise water. The lake gets this color because heavy glacier ice crushes mountain rocks into a fine powder. When sunlight hits this rock powder, it acts like millions of tiny blue mirrors. After taking your photos, you will descend safely and enjoy a hot, freshly prepared meal. Read more about our safety protocols here.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;When you hike with the right pacing and oxygen support, your body relaxes. Therefore, you stop worrying about your breathing and actually enjoy the massive ice peaks right in front of you.&#8221; <strong>Machupicchu Mountain Tours</strong></p></blockquote>
