How far in advance should I book my Inca Trail Trek?

If you’re planning to hike the Inca Trail in 2024, it’s important to plan ahead if you want to guarantee a spot. The Inca Trail is one of the most popular trekking routes in the world, and as a result, it can be very difficult to secure permits for April – October – peak hiking season in Peru.

In order to ensure that your desired date isn’t taken before you get a chance to book, we recommend booking at least two or three months in advance. This allows enough time for all the paperwork and payment processing needed when applying for an Inca Trail permit.

Additionally, since demand far outstrips supply when it comes to permits on this trail – there are only 500 available each day – it’s best not leave booking too late since availability could be completely gone by then. It might also mean there aren’t many options available from other companies by that point either!

It’s worth noting though, that while permits for the full 4-day trip are limited; permits covering just part of the trail typically have more availability if you still want an incredible experience without spending four days on your feet. For example, these half-day hikes can often be booked closer to departure times with fewer restrictions than those imposed on full trips along this incredibly scenic route!

Is the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu crowded?

The Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is not as crowded as it may seem. Even though the number of authorized visitors has been limited by the Peruvian government to 500 people per day, this doesn’t mean that you will necessarily be walking alongside large groups. This is because there are many different campsites along the trail, and each hiking group stays at a different place for the night.

On average, there are only about 90-100 hikers who share space on any given day of the route during peak times like summer and Easter holidays. The majority of these visitors (about 80%) come from overseas countries such as North America, Europe and Asia leading some to believe that they overcrowd the trail but this isn’t true – people also spread out over other days or choose alternate routes which reduces congestion on any single specific day of travel significantly.

It’s important to note that while the daily limit on visitors makes sure that overcrowding does not occur during peak months, it can lead to having difficulty obtaining permits in advance in order to hike on certain dates especially near major holidays such as Easter week or New Year’s Day when demand for tickets spikes massively due to high tourist interest from around world. It also means spots fill up quickly so if you have your heart set on doing this incredible trail then it’s important plan ahead!

So, what about the campsites for the Inca Trail? Is that a problem?

Visiting the Inca Trail is an incredible experience for any traveler and one of the best ways to explore the ancient ruins of this fascinating civilization. When it comes to campsites, however, there’s no reason to worry—the government has taken steps to ensure that travelers are able to find a safe and comfortable place for their overnight stay.

The campsites along the Inca Trail are managed by authorized operators who have been contracted by the government and abide by strict regulations for safety, hygiene, sanitation, environmental impact mitigation, and other critical issues. These operators work closely with local communities in order to maintain a sustainable trail while also protecting its natural environment.

In addition, you can be assured that all camping equipment provided onsite is up-to-date and well maintained; certified guides provide comprehensive instruction on hiking protocol as well as how to use proper camping etiquette during your journey. This includes providing assistance on setting up campgrounds and pitching tents—all so that you can enjoy your stay at whichever campsite you’ve chosen without worrying about anything else!

How many routs for Trekking there are to Machu Picchu?

There are four routes you can take for trekking to Machu Picchu:

The 2-day Short Inca Trail is the shortest of all the trails leading to Machu Picchu, taking only two days to complete. This trail begins at Km 104 and ends at Winay Wayna which leads directly into the Sun Gate of Machu Picchu. Although this route doesn’t provide stunning views like some other treks, it does offer a unique insight into how life was during Incan times with several ruins along the way such as Phuyupatamarca and Sayacmarca.

Next, there’s the 4-Day Classic Inca Trail: The classic trek from Cusco starts from km 82 and takes 4 days on average. This route follows ancient paths that lead deep into one of Peru’s most remote backcountry areas before arriving at Inti Punku (Sun Gate). Along this path hikers will get to experience pristine mountain lakes, picturesque forests with green foliage and a range of wild animals depending on your luck. It also offers incredible opportunities for wildlife spotting as well as visits various fascinating archaeological sites including Llactapata, Runkurakay, Sayacmarca and more!

The 5-Days Salkantay to Machu Picchu gives you more time exploring than what is allotted by other trails while still sticking closer distances between campsites than others which allow for better climatic conditions during rest periods overnight. An added bonus here is that it passes right by Mt Salkantay which stands tall over 6200m high making it a treat for photographers interested in nature shots! On your journey you will pass through gorgeous Andean villages while towering snowcapped peaks loom in the background –perfect moments sure to last forever!

Finally there’s then 7-days Salkantay & Inka Trail option where hikers get both experiences rolled up into one long week-long trek where you leave Cusco via traditional roads eventually reaching Mollepata before beginning your hike up towards Salkantay Pass near Humantay Lake — followed by a decent down along other local rivers passing through small Quechuan Villages ending with Llactapata eventually reaching Aguas Calientes town where we camp twice as part of our trips providing access early morning Trekkers arrive Early Morning onto Sun Gate “Inti Punku” from there its 2 hours walk down steeply cobbled stoned Path onto Town itself . Whatever option travelers choose they can expect spectacular sights at every twist and turn!
