    FAQs Frequently asked questions of our travelers

     

    Things you should know about the original Inka Trail to Machu Picchu

    1.– ¿When should you book the original Inca Trail to Machu Picchu?

    The Inca Trail is one of the best treks on our planet. That is why there is a great demand for tickets to the Inca trail. That is why you must reserve the income well in advance to make your trek to the Inka road to Machu Picchu. Take into account the following before reserving the ticket to the Inca Trail to machu piccho:

    • Income to the original Inka road is exhausted 6 months before. Remember that only 500 people can travel this route each day.
    • Only 200 people or travelers will end up entering Machu Picchu through this route of the Inca Trail, since the rest belongs to the support team, cooks, porters and professional guides.
    • The entrance to the original Inka road only includes the Inca City of Machu Picchu. If you want to go on an excursion to the Machu Picchu Mountain inka or the HuaynaPicchu mountain inka; Request it at the tourist agency previously and in advance before your trip.

    2.- ¿How long is the tour of the Original Inka Trail to Machupicchu?

    The Classic or traditional Inca Trail is 40 kilometers long and takes 4 days of walking (approximately 18 to 24 hours). The route will take you through mountains, until arriving at Machu Picchu in the Amazonian jungle of Peru. Some information about the tour of the Inka Trail:

    • The route crosses Inca archaeological sites such as Llactapata, Runkurakay, Sayacmarca, Phuyupatamarca and Wiñaywayna.
    • The end of the road is the entrance to the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu through the Intipunku inka (Puerta del Sol). That was the main gate in the time of the Incas. The landscape there is amazing and wonderful with a breathtaking view.
    • In most cases, after traveling the original Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, you will return to Cusco by train.
    • Some people decide to stay to relax in the thermal baths of Aguas Calientes or do other excursion activities and then return to the city of Cusco the next day.
    • The duration of the short Inca trail is 2 days to Machu Picchu and / or the classic Inca trail of 4 days to Machu Picchu. 

    3. – ¿What is the maximum height of the original Inka Trail to Machu Picchu?

    The original Inca Trail is considered a difficult expedition not only because of the distance but because of the high altitude at some point of the journey in the mountains with natural flora and fauna. The highest point of the Inca Trail is at the ‘Abra Warmihuañusca’, at 4,224 meters (13,860 feet). Recommendations for trekking on problems with height on the Inka Trail:

    • Altitude sickness or soroche is a typical discomfort in places with high mountain heights. It can cause headaches, nausea, loss of appetite, and lack of energy.
    • The best thing to combat soroche is to spend a few days before acclimatizing in the city of Cusco or in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.
    • One of the most effective ways is to drink plenty of coca tea (coca leaf-based infusion) or chew it, just as the Incas did hundreds of years ago.
    • In any case, the professional tour guide has a lot of experience in these discomforts and will know how to help the visitor during the walk along the Inka Trail to Machu Picchu.

    4.– ¿Can I do the original Inka Trail to Machu Picchu on my own?

    The entrance to the traditional Inca road is strictly controlled by the authorities. Thus, it seeks to protect the Inca Trail, which is more than 500 years old, and the wonderful natural environment of flora and fauna that surrounds it. More information about the permits of the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu:

    • The original Inka Trail is only allowed with the company of a professional tour guide. The purchase of the entrance is in a previously authorized tourism travel agency.
    • The travel agency will be in charge of reserving the entrance ticket for you and everything necessary to carry out the Inka Trail to Machu Picchu.
    • Tickets must be reserved 6 months in advance of your trip. Permits are limited to 500 people per day.
    • Among the 500 people who make the short Inca Trail 2 days and / or classic Inca trail 4 days, cooks, porters and professional guides are included. So there are only 200 tourists who can enter Machu Picchu through the Inca Trail.
