Nevertheless take note there is a limit of visitors per day so I suggest
you to book the trip as soon as possible to guarantee your spots.
*Remember to take your passport and your isic card on the inca trail
because without they you are not going to be able to do the hiking and
take only the necessary items for the 4/3 days trek, the rest of your
luggages you can leave it at your hotel in Cusco (most of hotels and
hostals has an storage where to keep until your return)
* Participants need to be in good physical health and condition to be
able to enjoy the Inka Trail. The trekking will be difficult if you have
not exercised regularly before your trip. To fully enjoy an Inka Trail

condition, we advise him/her to consult a physician about joining an
