Description

Day 1: Inca Trail Pick up from your hotel in Cusco is at 4:30 am and drive to KM. 82. After a delicious breakfast, you will head straight to the checkpoint to begin the trek. The first part it’s a relatively easy 2-hour hike to Patallacta; the first Inca site along the trail. From a unique, secluded location we will enjoy the breathtaking views. It’s then another 2-hour walk to Hatunchaca – where lunch will be waiting. We will walk for another two hours to the first campsite located in Ayapata, your tent, a snack, and a hot drink will be waiting for you. • All meals included • Personal porters for up to 7 kilos (we provide duffle bags) • All entry fees included • Visit the Llaqtapta, Willkarakay sites • Camping Day 2: Wake you up bright and early with a hot cup of coffee or tea. Today is the most challenging day, and after breakfast, it’s a 4-hour trek uphill to Dead Woman’s Pass, 4215m / 13829ft., this is the highest point along the Inca trail. At the summit, we will take time to appreciate the serenity of this location while your guide completes a traditional offering ceremony to the Apus (local Gods). After a 2-hour downhill trek to Pacaymayu Valley, we will enjoy a well-earned lunch. The second pass is an easier 2-hours hike, and we will take time to explore two Inca sites along the way; Runqurakay and Sayacmarca.

We will reach the campsite at approximately 1:00 pm to have lunch and you can then enjoy some free time to relax and unwind. Later in the afternoon, we will visit another impressive Inca site – Wiñay Wayna – where your guide will explain the history of this remarkable location. We will then return to the campsite for tea and dinner and a special surprise! • All meals included • Visit Phuyupatamarca, Intipata, Wiñaywayna • Camping Day 4: On our final day, we have to get up very early to visit Machu Picchu – the Lost City of the Incas.
