Day 3 – The Inca trail, Cusco to km 82 – Ayapata camp site
The first day of the Inca Trail Exclusive is easy going to help you settle into the trek. Covering 14km of the trail climbing gently up the Cusichaca Valley, you pass by the Inca site of Llactapata, enjoy great views of the snow-capped peak Veronica (5900m / 19000ft) and get to see a variety of native plant life and birds throughout the day. Our campsite for the night is at Ayapata (3300m / 10829ft) which is a little further along the trail than most groups go; as we’re camping further up the trail the next day’s trek up to the pass is a little easier for us and with fewer tourists at the campsite we can enjoy the peace and tranquility of this beautiful place. » Campsite: Ayapata 3300 m/ 10829 ft. » Distance: 14 km / 8.68 miles » Highest point: Ayapata campsite 3300 m/ 10829 ft..
Day 4 – The Inca trail, Ayapata camp site – Chaquilcocha camp site
Today is considered by many to be the hardest day of the trek; with 2 high passes (Dead Woman’s Pass is the highest at 4200m / 13779ft) to cross and nearly 16km to walk today really tests your spirit. There’s no need to worry though as thanks to our enthusiastic guides and a team of porters helping you along you’ll have all the moral and physical support you need to make it. Today we get fantastic views of the high mountain ranges as we cross the 2 passes and will have the chance to visit 2 Inca sites (Runcuraccay and Sayacmarca). Our campsite tonight is at Chaquicocha (3600m / 11800ft) which like Ayapata is one of the quieter campsites and affords beautiful views of the sun setting over the mountains in the distance. » Campsite: Chaquilcocha 3600 m / 11800 ft. » Distance: 16 km / 9.92 miles » Highest point: Dead woman pass 4200 m / 13779 ft.
Day 5 – The Inca trail, chaquilcocha campsite – Wiñay wayna camp site
Having made it over the 2 passes yesterday we’re now treated to a relaxing day through some of the most beautiful scenery the Inca Trail Exclusive has to offer. With a relatively short distance to cover along what is known as Inca Flat (gentle ascents and descents), we get to enjoy the lush and verdant cloud forest around us and the spectacular views of the Andes in the distance. With visits to 2 Inca sites (Phuyupatamarca and Winay Wayna), this is by far one of the most impressive days of the trek. Our campsite for tonight is at Wiñay Wayna (2680m / 8792ft) which we will arrive to be early afternoon and get to have an extended guided tour of once we have settled in. » Campsite: Wiñay Wayna 2680 m / 8792 ft. » Distance: 10 km / 6.2 miles » Highest point: Phuyupatamarca pass 3680 m / 12073 ft.
