Itinerary

DAY 1:Cusco - Ollantaytambo - Km104 - Sun Gate - Machu Picchu

Today Our trek takes us along the most impressive stretch of Machu Picchu 2 day Hike. We’ll visit beautiful Inca sites, see a variety of flora and fauna and get to take in the fantastic panoramas of the Andes Mountains. Covering 11km of the Short Inca Trail journey begins in the Sacred Valley and works its way up along an original Inca Trail to the Inca site of Wiñay Wayna before continuing on to Machu Picchu via the Sun Gate (Inti Punku).

After a full day trekking, we’ll arrive to the Sun Gate (Inti Punku) in the late afternoon and get our first views of Machu Picchu spread out on the mountain below. The light at this time of day is great for photos and with fewer tourists in the site it’s a perfect time to take some pictures.
