    3 day Inca trail hike. I would give 6 stars if I could!

    May 2023 • Family
    Catherine W Wrote: “A truly unforgettable experience. We did the 3 day Inca trail to machupichu with Niko. He was hands down the best tour guide I have ever met. If I could give him 6 out of 5 stars I would. His passion for sharing the history and culture of his people really shines. He is a wealth knowledge about everything along the hike from every peak you see to each plant along the way. Most importantly of all, he is dependable team leader, problem solved and decent human being. And also just really fun to be around. On our first day Niko said on this trek, we will become a family. I learned how deeply and sincerely he meant that. We were cavalier enough to think we could carry our 4 year old along the Inca trail. When we were struggling on a difficult part of the hike. Niko without hesitation picked up our daughter and carried her down a difficult descent himself . It was as if he was my real brother.

    The rest of our experience with Tierras Vivas was also exceptional. Chef Mario whipped up delicious multi course meals that I didn’t think possible in his “kitchen”. The porters in our family were the sweetest kindest hardest working group. And attention to detail of the trip planning was seamless from the supplies tents, hiking poles to the schedule for pickups train rides etc.

    A word to the wise. The 3 day Inca trail hike is exactly the Same hike as the 4 day. Except the first 3 days are condensed to 2. And the last day is exactly the same. So the days are long. And you should do it only if you are extremely athletic. If you are like “I’m young and healthy I should make it “ consider the 4 day. If you’re not fit enough or fast enough you may end up hiking in the dark.”

    Inca Trail 3 days 2 nights

    Inca Trail Hike TripAdvisor

    Day 01: Cusco – Piskacucho- Wayllabamba – Llullucha pampa

    Cusco Piskacucho Wayllabamba Llullucha pampaThis route was first examined by Hiram Bingham in 1911 and was opened for hikers in 1970. The legendary ruins of Machu Picchu are not the only historical remaining parts within the region, many other fascinating sites are in places that are only accessible on foot and have barely been explored.

    The Machu Picchu hike is starting early in the morning, our guide will pick you up from your hotel and transfer by driving toto Piskacuchu, an area situated on the 82nd km waymarker (51mile) of the Cusco (2,680 meters from sea level) – Machu Picchu railroad- the beginning of the Inca Trail. After a briefing you will cross a bridge and walk together with the bank of the Urubamba River as it streams north-west with the Sacred Valley along a horizontal landscape, then turning right and moving up abruptly from the river. After passing through a small village, the relics of the Inca hillfort Huillca Raccay appear high above the mouth of the river Cusichaca (happy bridge). When the Incas conquered this area they constructed a fort here as the site commands a wonderful vista across the Urubamba Valley and guarded the entrance to the Cusichaca Valley. You will also visit the very large Patallacta. You will have lunch in Chamana and then carry on along the river observing various Incan agricultural stepped terraces and irrigation channels until reaching the attractive village of Wayllabamba. After that in the afternoon you reach the village of Llullucha Pampa, the location of your first campsite (3,850m). You will have dinner and a rest.

    Distance: 17 km
    Estimated time: 7-8 hours
    Maximum altitude: 12,630 feet /3,850m
    Campsite: Llullucha Pampa
    1st Night campiste: Llulluchapampa campsite
    Inca Trail Hike: Patallacta

    Day 02: Llulluchapampa – Chaquicocha – Wiñay Wayna

    Llulluchapampa Chaquicocha Wiñay WaynaThe second day is the hardest but one of the most fascinating days, you reach 4,200 m, traversing the first and highest Warmiwañusqa Pass and later the second pass at 3,800 meters above sea level but also get to see more exciting sites, like Runquracay, the site is fenced with alcoves that might have been little resting locations, guard posts or ceremonial places, If feeling the effects of the altitude when crossing the first high pass its best to not stop or descend quickly to the valley of the Pakaymayu River, where you have lunch. Then you continue hiking through the valley to the Inca ruins of Runkuraqay and then climb up over the second pass – Abra Runkuraqay. After that you descend down to Yanacocha (The Black Lagoon) and then trek up a trail with stone steps to arrive at another cluster of distinct buildings. This location is called Sayaqmarka, a pre-Hispanic site with slender streets and buildings that stand at different levels; sanctuaries, patios, canals and an outside protective wall. From the top of the arch end, you can see various buildings that look like they once were temples and an astronomic watchtower with constant water supply and superior food storage.

    Sayaqmarka is a location brimming with enigma and enchantment; the rough distance from Runkuraqay is about 5km. It takes about 2 hours. This site covers over 3,600 meters above sea level. There’s a wonderful trail and a tunnel traversing across the site. We walk past beautiful subtropical vegetation and great archaeological sites. We get over the Phuyupatamarca Pass and just behind it are the Phuyupatamarca ruins which are better preserved than the ones we have seen up to now. A few km’s down a steep descent and via a cloud forest takes us to the last campsite at Wiñay Wayna Visitor’s center where you can purchase food and drink and use the restrooms.

    Distance: 21 km
    Estimated time: 9-10 hours
    Maximum altitude: 13779.53 feet /4,200m
    2nd night campsite: Phuyupatamarca or Wiñaywayna campsite
    Inca Trail Hike: Runquracay, Pakaymayu, Sayacmarca, Phuyupatamarca, Wiñaywayna

    Day 03: Winay Wayna – Machu Picchu

    Winay Wayna Machu PicchuThe third day begins at 3 am when we hike the last 4 km to Machu Picchu. Pursue the path indicated which is plainly marked by the signposts (and be careful not to wander too near to the edge of the cliff). Cherish your time at the most valuable masterpiece of the continent. You have plenty of time to enjoy your visit to Machu Picchu. In the afternoon we take the train back to Cusco.

    If you go straight from the town of Machupicchu (Aguas Calientes), its only 2km from Puente Ruinas station to Machu Picchu. It takes about 20 minutes to go down a narrow path which runs side-by-side to the rail line.

    Distance: 4 km
    Estimated time: 4-5 hours

    Summary of the best travel times in Peru

    Peru in January and February: Rainy season – heavy rain and temperatures between 15 and 25°C depending on the region. The coastal region is an exception – here it is sunny and dry at around 35°C

    Peru in March and April: Transition from rainy season to dry season – still cool and rainy in March, then increasingly drier in April and the temperatures rise

    Peru in May and June: Dry season – cloudy and cold on the Pacific coast, warmer and drier in the Andean regions

    Peru in July and August: Dry season – ideal weather for active travel and trekking tours, cool and humid on the coast

    Peru in September and October: Transition from dry season to rainy season – the fog and the cold on the coast are easing, in the Andean regions the first heavy rains of the upcoming Peruvian summer can occur

    Peru in November and December: rainy season – rainy Andes and Amazon region, ideal for sightseeing trips and beach holidays in Peru.

    Best time to hike the 3 day Inca Trail

    The Peruvian summer lasts from December to March. Then it rains a lot, you are then in the middle of the rainy season. In February, the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is completely closed. All alternative hikes to Machu Picchu (multi-day)  are then possible, but we strongly advise against doing so.

    Many arguments for a trip during the rainy season are that Peru is beautifully green and the sun still shines almost all the time. Of course that’s true. Above all, you can avoid the tourist crowds. But: If you are planning hikes, I recommend that you switch to other months. 

    Backpack for your trekking to Inca Trail

    Generally speaking you should pack as lightly as possible. If you have extra porter, the porter carry your luggage from Km82 (1st day) to Wiñay wayna camping (2th day).  You have extra porter. We recommend keeping the weight under 5 kg/10lb (included personal clothes and sleeping bag). You will need to carry daypack.

    If very important your take best cover backpacker, because the weather in Inca Trail is change every date, we can’t predict it raining or no. If you don’t have, we recommended to putting your clothes, sleeping bag and other personal equipment inside the plastic bag.

    Appropriate clothing along this hike

    Hiking pants and T-shirts are recommended during the day, complemented by sweaters, fleeces and waterproof jackets. It is very convenient to have light raingear available in the daypack (rain poncho or jacket and/or rain pants) as the weather changes easily and rains can suddenly occur. At night, warm clothing is required, down jackets can be useful, otherwise a fleece and a jacket. During the third day (if sunny) and in Machu Picchu, convertible hiking pants are useful, as can be switched into shorts if necessary. Machu picchu has a warm climate, getting only cold at night. The rest of necessary implements are included in the “What we recommend that you bring your Inca Trail” list.

    What to bring for the Inca Trail Hike?

    • Passport original
    • Original International Student Identity Card (in case you have applied for a student discount)
    • Cash in soles
    • Rain gear (jacket and pants if available)
    • Strong footwear, waterproof trekking boots recommended
    • Sandals or jogging shoes for a higher comfort while at camp
    • Warm clothes, including jacket, fleeces. Thermal clothing is also recommended.
    • Flashlight/headlamp and batteries
    • Camera and batteries (batteries consume more quickly under cold conditions)
    • Hat or cap to protect you from the sun, rain and cold
    • Sun block
    • After-sun cream or hydrating cream for face and body
    • Insect repellent – minimum recommended 20% DEET – no malaria risk has been reported
    • Handkerchiefs
    • Toilet paper
    • Snacks: biscuits, energy bars, chocolate, raw fruits, muesli, etc. Please note that we do provide a daily morning snack and our meal service is very complete and well supplied. This recommendation applies for all clients being used to a specific snack, as it may happen that it is not included in our selection
    • Water container and water for the first morning. Important notice: plastic water bottles are no longer allowed into Machu Picchu. Plastic water containers (ie. Nalgene) or metal ones are recommended
    • Optionally: water- sterilizing tablets in case you pick up water from streams or rivers along the route. Otherwise, we provide filtered boiled water, which is safe to drink and has not reported any health problem so far
    • Small towel
    • Swimsuit (if you wish to go to the hot springs in Aguas Calientes)
    • Optional: walking sticks or poles (rubber covers required in order not to damage the Inca Trail)

    Camping Equipment for the 3 Day Inca Trail

    During the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu we spend two nights full-service camping, meaning that our camp staff will erect and dismantle the tents, cook, and do all camp chores for you: you need only carry your day pack. There will also be dining and toilet tents and bowls of warm water are provided both morning and evening for washing with.

    Our tents are of the brand Eureka Timberline Outfitter 4 person designated for 4 seasons. We provide with 4 person capacity tents; however, just 2 trek participants use it! In this way, we provide you more space and comfort. In case of a single traveller, we provide with a 2 person capacity tent.

    Single Supplement: If you are traveling on your own, and would prefer to share a tent, we’ll pair you with another trekker of the same gender and there will not be an extra cost. If you prefer to have a tent to yourself a surcharge of USD 40 will have to be paid. If you want an upgrade any service to the train or do you want to stay extra night in Machu Picchu, contact us directly to info@tierrasvivas.com for this to be done and confirmed to you.
