Embark on an unforgettable trekking exploration along one of the world's most iconic trails. Follow in the footsteps of the ancient Incas on the famous Qhapaq Ñan, the royal road network of the Inca Empire, as you trek on foot to the legendary Machu Picchu.
Starting with a scenic train ride to the trailhead, the journey unfolds through lush cloud forests, over ancient stone steps and through timeless mountain tunnels, culminating in an awe-inspiring arrival at the Sun Gate (Inti Punku) - the grand entrance to the legendary Machu Picchu, just as the Incas experienced it centuries ago.
