We invite you on an epic journey to the lost city of the Incas. A unique multi-sport trip that combines the classic four day Inca trail hike with mountain biking, white water rafting and the opportunity to explore the enchanting colonial city of Cusco.
The Inca trail winds its way from the Sacred Valley passing through cloud forest and barren mountain passes, spectacular Inca terraces and ancient sites, exposing you to the natural elements at their most extreme. You will be hiking for 6 - 7 hours a day at altitudes of over 10,000 ft. The scenery is absolutely spectacular and so it's well worth the effort. The hike is fully supported and include all meals and tent accommodations. You will only be required to carry your day pack and the porters will carry the rest. |
