This distinctive Lares trek follows an uncommon route, deserted from the frequented paths. You’ll encounter secluded settlements like Cancha Cancha, situated so high within the mountains that a road to the village is non-existent. Take in the breath-taking lakes and landscapes and round off with a personalized, informative tour in Machu Picchu. This exclusive small-group journey includes both hearty and gourmet dishes, superior camping gear, and access to Lares’ thermal springs. Engage with the native inhabitants along the path and prepare to be fascinated on your visit to the enchanting ruins of Machu Picchu.

• Important: If you want to climb Huayna Picchu mountain, you must book this at the same time as your trek or tour to Machu Picchu. Only 400 people can hike Huayna Picchu per day. You will climb it on your own after the tour in Machu Picchu around 10am. Please contact the local tour operator upon booking to arrange this
• Horses and mules carry the food, camping equipment and your belongings up to 7 kg
• During the trek to Machu Picchu your main luggage will be stored in Cusco and you will receive a small duffel bag (on the day of your briefing) to pack clothes for 3-4 days. Your team of porters will carry these bags together with the food and equipment for the trail. Please note that you will not have access to these items until the end of each day as the porters will always be ahead of the group, you should therefore bring a day pack in which you can carry personal belongings such as your camera, water and sunscreen. By Peruvian law the duffel bag carried by the porters must not weigh more than 7kg (14 pounds). You can either store your luggage at your hotel or you can leave it with the tour operator
• Please advise any specific dietary requirements at time of booking
