Itinerary
Short Inca Trail
1
Cusco
We pick you up from your hotel early (depending on train time) and take you to the train station. We travel by train, on a very scenic route for two and a half hours until we reach kilometer 104 – the start of the trail for us. From here, we have a walk of about 4 hours up to the Incan site Wiñay Wayna ('Forever Young') (2680m/8792ft). You have joined the path in time to see the most excellent site on the whole Inca Trail!
Then, we will continue on to 'Inti Punku' ('Sun gate') (2730m/8792ft) from where you will have your first dramatic, panoramic view of Machu Picchu (2400m/7873ft). We will walk down the last part of the trail towards the ancient city itself. Before reaching Machu Picchu, we will take a side path off the trail to go down to Aguas Calientes, leaving the visit to Machu Picchu for the next day. In Aguas Calientes, we'll have dinner and a much-deserved rest so we're recharged and ready for Machu Picchu the next day.
