Inca Trail Index

Inca Trail

The trail system of the old empire of the Incas is one of the most impressive features of the Incan ancient Empire. Mountain peoples and lowland desert dwellers where linked with the capital Cusco with a network of trails that spread in all directions. The Inca culture was confident in the mountains – something unusual for Europeans that only assimilated centuries later - roads ran through deep valleys and mountains, over turbulent rivers with suspended bridges made of ropes of straw, roads were carefully paved, cut through the rock, with walls and steps. Lodgings, storehouses, temples to the sun, posts and rests houses were built every few kilometres. The Incas did not need the wheel; all travel was done on foot with chasqui runners and caravan of llamas carrying messages and goods. The chasqui runners were young men who relayed messages for hundreds of kilometres in a chain of hundreds of runners.

The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is the most famous one. It starts from several trailheads along the railway line that runs from Cusco to Machu Picchu and covers 43 km of varied terrain, ranging in elevation from 2600 m to 4200 m and in vegetation from barren puna grassland to cloud forest. Along the way are superb Inca ruins and, at the end, Machu Picchu.
The Classic Inca Trail starts at the km 82 of the Cusco-Machu Picchu railway and it is hiked in three days/three nights, with the fourth day dedicated to the visit of Machu Picchu.

Our suggestion is to look instead for a company that offers to hike the Inca trail in a four days (with the fifth day fully dedicated to the visit of Machu Picchu), in this way you can avoid the long walk of the third day and be sure not to miss the ruins of Wiñawayna, the last spot close to the Trekker Hotel, that after the long walk of the third day is usually reached too late in the evening for a proper visit.
Wiñawayna are the most beautiful ruins along the trail, but we arrived too late in the night to see them. We were so sorry to have missed them that we hoped to have a second chance to make the shorter, one-day route that starts from km 104.
