The 2-day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is a shorter but exhilarating trek that showcases the beauty of the Andes Mountains, lush forests, and ancient Inca ruins. The first day involves a challenging uphill hike, passing through remarkable sites like Wiñay Wayna and culminating in the breathtaking view of Machu Picchu from the Sun Gate. On the second day, you’ll explore the ruins of Machu Picchu before the crowds arrive, discovering notable landmarks such as the Temple of the Sun and the Intihuatana Stone. This condensed trail is ideal for those with limited time, providing an immersive experience of Inca history and the mesmerizing allure of Machu Picchu.
