Inca Trail to Machu Picchu

0

This has probably been included on every destination bucket list ever written and you only need to look at photos of this place to understand why.

The 43km trail traverses through the Andes mountain range and takes in stunning mountains, cloud forests, jungles and Inca paving stones. It’s no wonder the Inca Trail is rated by many as one of the best in the world. The old adage of, ‘It’s the journey, not the destination’ doesn’t ring true in this case as trekkers are greeted by the awe-inspiring Machu Picchu at the end of the journey. This archeological city draws visitors from around the globe each year and it’s often the first thing people add to their wish-list when visiting South America.

The best time to undertake the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is between May and September during the dry season but you’ll need to be well prepared. You’ll need a moderate to high level of fitness, trekking experience, adequate clothing and a good sleeping bag amongst other things.
