HIGHLY DESIRABLE EQUIPMENT TO TAKE WITH YOU TO INCA TRAIL

Plastic bags .- Useful for segregating your wet clothes from the rest of your kit in your rucksack.

Trekking poles.-  If you’ve done some trekking before you’ll know if you need trekking poles / sticks or not; if you haven’t, assume you will. While trekkers on the Inca Trail often use trekking poles / sticks (also called ski poles) the whole way, trekking poles really come into their own on the descent, to minimize the strain on your knees as you trudge downhill.

Boiled sweets/chocolate.-  On The Inca Trail sweets are great for winning friends and influencing people. Good for energy levels too and morale.

Bandanna (aka ‘buff’).- For keeping the dust out of your face when walking on the Saddle, to use as an ear-warmer on the final of the trek, and to mop the sweat from your brow on those exhausting uphill climbs.

Chapstick/lip salve or Vaseline.-  The wind on the summit of the mountains on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu will rip your sunburnt lips to shreds. Save yourself the agony by investing in a chap stick, available in strawberry and mint flavor from pharmacists in Moshi and Arusha
