The Inka Jungle Trail 4D / 3N combines different outdoor activities, such as biking, rafting trekking, Zip line and ending in Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu. This fabulous experience will take you through 4 days of not only a traditional tour, but a complete adventure tour with specialized guides in the field of adventure.
Goups: 2 people minimum to a maximum of 15 people.
The ascent to La Puerta del Sol is always available and accesible. It is a pleasant place with a nice view of Machu Picchu. You can take this walk on you free time.
If you prefer to climb up Huayna Picchu you will have an spectacular view, but this should be reserved a long time in advance and the cost of it is 25 US$ per person.
It is an hour and a half climb up of moderated difficulty.
Another option is Machu Picchu Montania, an hour and a half very steep, very physically demanding ascent and the cost of it is 15 US$ per person. This is probably the most spectacular view, but the three options are very enjoyable and will allow you to take good photos.
