The trail descends to Quellomayo where the group will stop for lunch and have some time to relax in hammocks. Keep an eye out for natural fruit, especially the taste explosion that is maracuya (passion fruit). After lunch the trek continues along the surging Urubamba river, crossing it at one point in a cart and pulley (safe yet thrilling!). Your day of trekking (around 16km) concludes with a visit to the immaculate Santa Theresa hot springs. Sink into the warm water and let the aches of the trail melt away. Dinner and a comfortable hostel in Santa Theresa rounds out the day.

The zip line option includes transport to the zip line facility and 5 zips. Are you brave enough to lean back into the upside down monkey position? Or spread your wings and dive head first in the incredible superman position.

Another three hours trekking along the train tracks and the raging river brings you to the tourist town of Aguas Calientes. Travelers have the option to visit the local hot springs or relax and explore the town before dinner.

Day 1 – Cusco to Santa Maria: The tour begins with pickup at 6:30 am in Loki reception. Leave your bags in our luggage

storage and hit the road! Sit back and enjoy the spectacular scenery as you are driven to over 4,200 meters above sea level

to the top of Abra Malaga. (picture mtn.) Take a deep breath, strap on the protective gear provided and take in the majestic

mountain before hitting the pavement on brand new mountain bikes. Feel the wind whip your face as you cruise down

winding mountain roads, past waterfalls, mountain villages and the occasional road dog. Almost three hours and a 2,000-

meter decent of white knuckled excitement brings you to the lunch stop in Alfamayo. Strip off layers and slap on insect

repellent as you enter the pre-jungle climate. After lunch and some time to relax (to let the heat of the afternoon melt away)

a short van ride takes you to the start of your first short trek. About 30 minutes penetrating the jungle takes you to your

accommodation for the evening. A family owned jungle lodge provides the perfect backdrop to recover from the trek and

recount the excitement of the day. Keep an eye out for the family mongoose and parrot!

Day 2 – Santa Maria to Santa Teresa (16kms trekking): A 7 am wake up finds you shrouded in the mists of the jungle.

After a hearty breakfast your day starts with a short but intense climb to start your section of an authentic Inka Trail. As you

wind up and down precipitous cliffs over a stunning valley your guide will transport you to the time of the Incas, revealing

some of what little we do know from this ancient and amazing culture. The trail descends to Quellomayo where the group

will stop for lunch and have some time to relax in hammocks. Keep an eye out for natural fruit, especially the taste explosion

Theresa hot springs. Sink into the warm water and let the aches of the trail melt away. Dinner and a comfortable hostel in

Santa Theresa rounds out the day.

Day 3 – Santa Teresa to Aguas Calientes: A choice waits at the outset of the third day: either continue trekking, or choose

to fly through the air 150 meters above the ground over rivers and jungle! The zip line option includes transport to the zip

line facility and 5 zips. Are you brave enough to lean back into the upside down monkey position? Or spread your wings

Day 4 –Machu Picchu: Your climb to Machu Picchu begins before the sun is up. Ascend step by step for approximately an

hour up the Inca staircase to the formerly lost stronghold of Machu Picchu. A 2-hour guided tour reveals mysteries and

poses questions of how the Incas lived and were able to achieve such marvelous feats of engineering. After the tour you

have the option to climb Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu Mountain for an even more incredible view of the ruins and the

surrounding sheer cliffs of the Andes. Take your time exploring the wondrous ruins and get that perfect picture before

making your descent back to Aguas Calientes. Your return to Cusco will depend on what return option you select. If you

purchase a return train with Loki Travel you need to return to Aguas Calientes at least 30 minutes prior to your train

departure.

Huayna Picchu Mountain offers great views over

Machu Picchu – a great addition to your visit. Total

time up and down approx. 1hr45, while passes last!

If there are no passes available consider Machu

Picchu mountain for a less touristy alternative trek.

ZIP LINES + VIA FERRATA in Santa Teresa:

5 zip lines totaling 2500m of cables 150m high

over the valley reaching speeds of up to 80km

per hour! Also a great option to shorten your

trekking time on day 3.

Info 3D 2N Inca Jungle Trek

In this version you will be transported at the end of the bike ride of day1 to Santa Teresa to catch up with the group who left 1 day

before you.

Downside = you miss the nicest part of the hike on the Inca Trail path and leave your group that you left Cusco with.

Upside = You need to hike less and the trek takes only 3 days. By the way, you still can do the Zip Line on day 2.

How is the road between Santa Maria and Santa Teresa?

The adrenaline rush reaches to all parts of the tour, including the transportation to Santa Teresa included with the 3 day

version. This heart pumping ride takes you over dirt road and cliffs via local Peruvian transport (seat belts may or may not be

included!).
