Overview
The classic 4-day Inca Trail covers 43 km from the Urubamba Valley to the Sun Gate above Machu Picchu, crossing three high passes including Dead Woman's Pass at 4,215 m. The route passes Inca ruins, cloud forest, and alpine tundra before the theatrical reveal of the citadel from the Inti Punku — the Sun Gate — at dawn. Permits are strictly capped at 500 per day; book six months in advance or lose your place.
