Highlights

The two-day Inca Trail with camping involves six to eight hours of hiking, passing the Inca sight of Chachabamba, Wiñay Wayna, and ending at the Sun Gate above Machu Picchu. It’s followed by a night camping at the base of Machu Picchu where the dinner and breakfast would be be cooked by our professional chef plus a day exploring the ruins of Machu Picchu on day 2.

What's this trip about?

This popular Short Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with camping hike incorporates a significant portion of the Classic Inca Trail but in a shorter time frame! But that doesn't mean this is not a great trek on its own merits! On this hike, you will tour an Inca Ruin, Chachabamba, which is not seen on any other trek. You will also see a waterfall that is so gorgeous it can’t be described! This version of the Short Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with camping includes one-night camping at the base of Machu Picchu (Puente Ruinas) and two meals prepared by our gourmet chef.
