A challenging 4 day tour, will you dare?


Day 1: The beginning of an adventure - “Inca flat”

We will start the tour in Cusco. We will pick you up from your hotel between 4h and 4:30h (the pick up time will be confirmed in a training session) and will travel 82 kilometers to Piskacucho on a bus. On our way we will have a quick stop at Ollantaytambo between 6:30h and 7h to regain our strength. We will reach kilometer 82 at around 8:30h where we will get ready for the hike.

From here we will start traveling in a height of 2720 meters (8923 ft). Crossing the Vilcanota River, we will continue along the route and enjoy beautiful views of the Inca fortress known as Huillca Raccay, the vast Inca of Llactapata (called Patallacta), the Urubamba mountain range that divides the jungle and the beautiful peak of Wakay Willca (known as Verónica) situated at more than 5,800 meters.

The tour for the day will end once we will arrive to the Ayapata camp located one and a half hour away from the Wayllababa village, in the green valley called after the same name. On the first day we will cover about 12 km of route (5 or 6 hours) in total.


Day 2: Trial Route


Once we will get up at 5:30h, we will start with a steep ascent to the highest pass known as Abra de Warrmihuañusca (the Passage of the dead woman) at 4200m (13779 ft). We will climb to its peak and then descend until we reach Pacaymayu where we will rest.

During the hike we will encounter birds such as colibries, apart from a multitude of other species of flora as well as trees typical to the area of Polypesis.

After lunch we will start the second ascent of 2 hours towards Runkuraqay pass where our camp for the second night is located. We should arrive at around 17h. On the second day we will cover around 16 kilometers (8-9 hours in total).


Day 3: Back to the past!


A beautiful landscape and a short walk to the camp. The day will start at 6h with rich breakfast and then we will start walking with an easy climb to visit the archaeological site of Phuyupatamarca (City of Clouds) and reach the third highest point of the trail (3680 m). From here, the views of the mountains, canyons and surrounding areas are incredible.

We will continue walking through the cloud forest to the Inca place of Intipata and Wiñay Wayna campsite. We will walk for a total of 5 hours (about 10 km) on this day. Within a short distance from the campsite the archaeological remains named after the same name Wiñay Wayna are situated. They are a sight of greatest interest.


Day 4: Machu Picchu in all of its glory!


The last day of our trip will be dedicated to visit Machu Picchu. We will leave our last camp around 5:30h and will walk towards Inti Punku (Sun gate) before dawn. From here you will have a chance to observe the incredible views of the famous Machu Picchu with the sun rising right above it.

We will continue until the last part of the route and take the opportunity to take magnificent photos of the surroundings before arriving to the city. We will arrive to the ancient city of Machu Picchu in about two hours (5 km). Here you can explore the mysterious city in depth.

On our way back, you will meet with your guide in Aguas Caliente (you can get there ont he bus or on foot) where we will have lunch and take a train back to Cusco. You will also have an option to spend and extra night in the city to enjoy its thermal baths -  an absolute delight after completing the hike!
