The Inn At Castle Hill
Monday, April 27th, 2009
This greatgreentraveler had the pleasure of spending the weekend at The Inn At Castle Hill, located on the 165 acre Crane Estate in Ipswich, Ma. A beautiful and elegant home with panoramic views of the marshes, fields, and ocean with almost every turn. Drop your bags and time just slips away.
You’re treated to amenities such as afternoon tea, a welcome respite after trekking the marked trails that run through the dunes, or walking the four miles of white-sand beach. With 2,100 acres of property to wander over and through, there is much to do between your tasty breakfast in the sun filled dining room and the time you decide to relax on the wide veranda with your ice tea and tasty and watch the light change over the salt marshes.
The Inn is one of the properties of The Trustees of The Reservations, a nonprofit conservation organization in Massachusetts that has been working to protect and keep the natural landscape for all to enjoy since 1891.

This is classified as a “high altitude, moderate / strenuous hiking holiday”. Indeed! You’ll be traveling not only through time, but through several climatic and ecological zones as well on your way to reach Machu Picchu. You’ll ascend to altitudes of roughly 4,200 meters as your local guides lead you from camp to camp. The high-attitude wilderness is home to spectacular views along with many species of Andean birds and flora that you will have the opportunity to view.
