This tour, rated with a physical level of 2/5, is suitable for people aged 12 and up with adaptable physical conditions. It is the perfect option for those adventurous visitors who want to experience the challenge of walking the short Inca Trail instead of the traditional 4-day route, but still want to live the unique experience of reaching Machu Picchu, one of the SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD.

We will get off the train at km 104 to begin our walk. Along the way, we will cross the bridge until we reach the ROUTE 05 entrance control and we will pass by impressive places, such as the Phuyuwachi waterfall and the Wiñayhuayna archaeological site with its Inca terraces. After approximately 4 hours of walking, we will arrive at Intipunku (gate of the sun), from where we will enjoy a beautiful view of Machu Picchu. We will descend towards the citadel to capture the iconic photo and explore this world tourist attraction.

Once our experience on the Inca Trail is over, we will take a bus that will take us to Aguas Calientes, where we will go to the hotel to settle in and spend the night.

This route is a fascinating place in the world, with a surprising geography that is home to various archaeological attractions, landscapes and climates, giving rise to the evolution of a varied flora and fauna over time in our mountains and jungle.
