About this experience
Experience this amazing trek that excellently combines hiking and sports such as mountain biking and rafting. This 4-day journey will take us from the ancient city of Cusco all the way to the majestic ruins of Machu Picchu. Along the way, you will pass distinct villages as well as archaeological sites of the Incan people. We will start in a valley more than 4000m above sea level before descending 4 hours on a mountain bike in the midst of a tropical forest. We will pass beautiful mountains that offer splendid views. These wonderful days will be spent walking splendid views filled with mountains and tropical vegetation, passing by little picturesque villages where we will have the opportunity to harvest the local fruit like the coca. Around the end of the trip, we could get lucky and have a magnificent view over the Inca Trail used by the Inca in ancient times. At the very end, in the city of Aguas Calientes, we can enjoy the hot springs before leaving for Machu Picchu.
