Itinerary
The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is widely regarded as one of the best hikes in the world. It is also one of the most approachable, as no special skills are required to complete it – although good health and fitness will certainly help you make the journey from the trailhead to Machu Picchu.
Compared to other famous treks, this trail is relatively short, making it perfect for those with limited time. Despite its length, the route is incredibly diverse and captivating: along the way you will encounter fascinating ruins, snow-capped peaks, beautiful waterfalls, and lush jungle. At the end of the trail, you will pass through the Sun Gate for your first glimpse of Machu Picchu – an unforgettable view of the ruins from above at their most breathtaking.
The government has preserved a portion of the thousands of miles of original Inca trails for this classic hike. This popular route covers 26 miles and takes four days to complete. Travel and book with confidence through the #1 local Inca Trail tour operator in Cusco.
