The Incas built a very extensive network of almost 40,000 kilometers of hiking trails, to the far reaches of the vast empire, which stretched from Quito in Ecuador to Santiago in Chile and Mendoza in Argentina. During this 4 day tour we will hike over what probably was the most important route of the Inca Civilization. An truly, unforgettable experience.

What is the difference between Huayna Picchu and Machu Picchu mountain?

There are 2 mountains close to Machu Picchu (see the pictures above) which both give you the opportunity to watch the Inca Capital from further above.

  • The Huayna Picchu is a shorter walk; you only need around 45 minutes to go up. At the top there is a nice archaeological center which you can visit. The hike down is also around 45 minutes.
  • Machu Picchu Mountain takes around 1.5 hours to hike up. Just like the Huayna Picchu, there is an archaeological center which you can visit. Getting down will take you approximately 1.5 hours as well.
