FIRST DAY
We will leave the city of Cusco and drive to the town of Ollantaytambo in our private van. There we will board the tourist train that will take us to the starting point of our hike. Our first stop will be at the archaeological site called CHACHABAMBA (2,200 m / 7,200 ft) which is located right next to the Urubamba River. Next, we continue our trek to another beautiful archaeological complex called WIÑAYWAYNA (2,650 m / 8,218 ft). This is where we will eat lunch. After lunch, we will continue hiking until we reach INTIPUNKU (the famous Gateway of the Sun,) which is found at an elevation of 2,700 m / 8,924 ft.) From there we can appreciate the incredible majesty of the ancient Inca Citadel of MACHUPICCHU. It will probably take 6 or 7 hours of hiking until we reach Machupicchu. Arrival time to Machupicchu is approximately 4:00 pm. We will have time for some photos, and then we will ride down to the town of Machupicchu Pueblo in a tourist bus.
