Activity Level
This adventure is extraordinary, but its intensity should not be underestimated despite the popularity of the destination.
This journey is rated as Highly Strenuous due to the extensive hiking involved in alpine conditions, with elevations ranging from 11,000 feet in Cusco to a high of 13,828′ at the Inca Trail’s peak. High-altitude hiking is significantly more challenging and slower due to the effects of altitude on the body. To help mitigate these effects, Tour Leaders Peru Adventure has built in a 3-day acclimatization period before hitting the trail.
Altitude
For this specific itinerary, be prepared to experience some altitude. Just to give you an idea, Cusco sits at about 11,000 feet (3,300 meters). The Sacred Valley, which is about 1.5-3 hours away from Cusco, is situated between 3,000 and 9,000 feet (900-2,700 meters) with Machu Picchu at an elevation of 8,000 feet (2,400 meters). Some of the other sights like Rainbow Mountain, also included in this itinerary sit at around 15,000-16,000 feet (4,500-4,800 meters).
There are plenty of people that visit Cusco and the Sacred Valley each year–in fact, millions–and adapt just fine with the altitude. The trick is to prepare and plan your itinerary wisely, so you can minimize and avoid the risk of altitude sickness. In this 14 day family adventure itinerary in Peru, we carefully put together a schedule that allows you to slowly adjust to higher altitudes, so you aren’t spending your first few days of the trip sick, but still maximizing your time here.
Inca Trail Heights
Some sections of the trail feature exposure to heights, particularly on Day 5 during the mountain passes and on Day 6 as you ascend Warmiwañusqa Pass (Dead Woman’s Pass). These high-altitude trails include drop-offs, but they are well-defined and well-maintained. Our experienced guides are there to ensure your safety and comfort at every step. They’ll provide support when needed, and the pace allows ample time to carefully navigate these sections.
Pre-Trip Preparation
Certain pre-existing medical conditions may worsen at high altitudes and could be difficult to manage during the hike, potentially leading to serious consequences. It is essential to consult your doctor regarding any pre-existing conditions before embarking on this trip. Additionally, some medications can assist with acclimatization or alleviate altitude sickness—please discuss these options with your healthcare provider.
Daily Hiking Overview
Day 5: 6 hours | 7.3 miles | 5,003’/1,132′ gain/loss | 12,598′ Altitude | Challenging
Day 6: 8 hours | 7.5 miles | 3,937’/4,209′ gain/loss | 13,858′ Altitude | Challenging
Day 7: 7 hours | 7 miles | 564’/4,603′ gain/loss | 11,975′ Altitude | Moderate
Optional Day 9: 3.5 hours | 2.5 miles | 900’ gain | 16,000′ Altitude | Challenging
Important Reminder
Please carefully consider your ability to meet the physical demands of this trip. This is essential for your safety and the safety of the group. All participants will be required to sign an Acknowledgment of Physical Demands as part of the booking process.

FAQ’s
1. Is 8 Days Enought fro Peru
An eight-day adventure in Peru offers the perfect balance of trekking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, immersing in the cultural wonders of Cusco, and experiencing thrilling adventures in the Sacred Valley. For those seeking a more ambitious hike, the Salkantay Trek presents an exciting alternative route. Get ready for an unforgettable journey!
2. How many days do you need in Peru?
Our recommendation: Spend a minimum of 12 days in Peru for an incredible experience! While it’s possible to cover the highlights in just ten days, you’ll be rushing without truly savoring the sights. With 12 days, you’ll have plenty of time to visit four amazing places and fully immerse yourself in the adventure!
3. What is the best month to go to Peru?
The winter season (May – September) in Cusco and Machu Picchu is the ideal time to travel. It’s the driest period, offering pleasant weather for exploration. On the other hand, the summer season (December – March) brings warmth but also frequent heavy showers. Stay prepared and make the most of your trip!
4. How many days can a US citizen stay in Peru?
Great news for US citizens planning a trip to Peru for tourism! You won’t need to go through the hassle of applying for a visa. You can enjoy a maximum stay of 183 days in this beautiful country, exploring its wonders to your heart’s content. However, if you’re heading to Peru for business or any other purpose, make sure to apply for a visa beforehand. Happy travels!
4. What should I pack for the Inca Trail hike tours?
For the Inca Trail hike tours, pack light but include essentials such as comfortable hiking boots, breathable clothing, a rain jacket, sunscreen, a hat, personal medications, and a good camera. It’s crucial to be prepared for varying weather conditions and altitude changes.
5. Are Inca Trail trek tours suitable for beginners?
Yes, Inca Trail trek tours can be suitable for beginners, but it is important to be physically prepared. While the trail does not require technical skills, it involves steep ascents and challenging terrain. Prior physical conditioning and stamina will make your experience much more enjoyable.
6. How difficult is the Inca Trail hike?
The difficulty of the Inca Trail hike is moderate to challenging. The terrain includes steep ascents, high altitudes, and uneven paths. However, with proper preparation and pacing, most hikers can complete the trek successfully, especially with the support of a knowledgeable guide during Inca Trail guided tours.
7. Do I need permits for Inca Trail hiking tours?
Yes, permits are required for Inca Trail hiking tours. Due to the trail’s popularity and the need for conservation, the Peruvian government limits the number of hikers daily. Permits are typically secured through tour operators, who will handle the booking process on your behalf.
8. How do I book Inca Trail trek tours?
Inca Trail trek tours can be booked through reputable tour operators who provide comprehensive packages. It’s advisable to book at least 6 months in advance due to the high demand and limited number of permits available for each trek.
9. Can I visit Machu Picchu without hiking the Inca Trail?
Yes, you can visit Machu Picchu without hiking the Inca Trail. You can take the train to Aguas Calientes and then a bus to the Machu Picchu entrance. However, hiking the Inca Trail offers a more immersive and rewarding experience before reaching the ancient citadel.
10. What is the best time for Inca Trail hiking tours?
The best time for Inca Trail hiking tours is during the dry season, from May to September. These months offer more favorable weather conditions, with less rainfall and clear skies. The rainy season (November to March) can make the trail slippery and challenging.
11. Is acclimatization necessary before Inca Trail hikes?
Acclimatization is highly recommended before embarking on an Inca Trail hike, as the trail reaches altitudes over 4,000 meters (13,000 feet). Spending a few days in Cusco or other high-altitude locations helps prevent altitude sickness and allows your body to adjust to the thin air.
12. Are there any age restrictions for Inca Trail trekking tours?
While there is no strict age limit for Inca Trail trekking tours, hikers must be in good physical health. Most tour operators recommend a minimum age of 12 years old. The trek can be physically demanding, so younger children and elderly hikers should be mindful of their physical capabilities.
13. What types of meals are provided on Inca Trail hikes?
