At an altitude of 3,300m, you'll spend our first day acclimatising by taking a trek around the famous Inca sites surrounding Cusco – a great way to begin your trek.
This classic Inca Trail encompasses 3 high mountain passes – the highest being 4,200m. The trek will be tough and will certainly test you, but upon witnessing the sight of Machu Picchu through the Sun Gate mirrored with breathtaking views across the Andes you efforts are more than worthwhile.

Please note: All open challenge participant ill be invoiced £200 for a mandatory trekking permit prior to the challenge. This is in addition to the minimum sponsorship or challenge balance.
