Climb the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
A trek for anyone wanting to challenge themselves, this incredible trail rewards adventurers with the breathtaking scenery the Peruvian Andes has to offer. You’ll trek on Inca-paved paths and steps, through lush cloud forest and continually climb up or drop down – the altitude adds to the challenge. You’ll finish your trip with a free day to explore Cuzco where you can enjoy dinner with your fellow trekkers and celebrate your achievements.
