Machu Picchu

Through the fertile heartland of the Sacred Valley, the trail allows you to trace in the steps of this ancient civilization and enrich your entire experience. Soak in the amazing views of the fertile mountain range and the rich culture of the Incas on this incredible trek. Whether on a beautifully sunny day or surrounded by a cold mist, the trail is always impressive. At around 43 kilometres long and with steep inclines at times, an intermediate level of fitness is required. Permits are limited on a daily basis and the trail closes during February for conservation work to take place, so this is a trip that must be organised in advance.

For those wanting an alternative to the well beaten tourist path of the Inca Trail, the Lares Trek is an excellent option. Taking in the spectacular scenery of the Lares Valley, you ll discover a region where little has changed over the past 500 years. Passing through Andean villages and farming areas, you ll have more interaction with the traditionally dressed locals than you would on the Inca Trail, and the sheer size and raw, natural beauty of the surrounding landscapes will leave you spellbound.
