The Lares Trek to Machu Picchu is one of the most authentic and least explored trekking routes in Cusco. Unlike the Classic Inca Trail, Salkantay Trek, or Inka Jungle Trek, this route immerses you in the essence of the Peruvian Andes, combining spectacular landscapes with a deep cultural connection. This trek starts in the Lares Valley, located east of the Urubamba Mountain Range. During the journey, you will cross stunning mountains, crystal-clear lagoons, and small Andean communities that have preserved their traditions since Inca times. Its geographic isolation has allowed these populations to maintain their traditional clothing, language, gastronomy, and ancestral customs, providing you with a unique and authentic experience. One of the most fascinating aspects of this route is the interaction with the local population. You will be able to observe and share with families who still practice textile techniques passed down from their ancestors, making garments with alpaca wool and dyed with natural dyes. In addition, along the way, you will walk alongside llamas and alpacas, sacred animals to the Incas, which remain an integral part of Andean life. The Lares Trek is not only a physical challenge but also an opportunity to connect with Pachamama and enjoy the natural beauty of the Andes. Over four days, you will experience the true spirit of trekking in Cusco, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and culminating the adventure with a visit to the majestic Machu Picchu citadel.

This tour will take you to explore the Sacred Valley of the Incas, the incredible city of Machu Picchu, the beautiful Humantay Lagoon, and the magical Lake Titicaca. Throughout the journey, you will have unforgettable adventures as you learn about the history of the Incas, enjoy nature, and discover the culture of the local communities. Your trip will begin in the Sacred Valley, a place filled with mountains, rivers, and traditional villages. There, you will visit Chinchero, famous for its colorful textiles; Moray, where the Incas cultivated in circular terraces; and the Salineras de Maras, with over 3,000 salt ponds shining in the sun.

Next, you will head to the Humantay Lagoon, a beautiful turquoise lake surrounded by snow-capped mountains. Although the hike to get there is a bit challenging, the view from the top will make the effort worthwhile.

This trip is designed so that you can enjoy every moment with safety and comfort. As tickets for Machu Picchu and the trains sell out quickly, it is recommended to book in advance.
The classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu is one of the most famous treks in the world and the most popular in Peru. It can be done in two versions: a 2-day trek and a 4-day trek. For either option, a special permit called the “Inca Trail permit” is mandatory. Spots are very limited, so many people book their permits months in advance—sometimes even up to a year ahead. The general recommendation is to make a reservation 6 to 8 months in advance to secure a spot. The classic 2-day Inca Trail is the only route that allows you to visit Machu Picchu twice. One of the most iconic points of the trek is Inti Punku, also known as the “Sun Gate”, which offers a panoramic view of Machu Picchu before reaching the citadel. You’ll also pass through Wiñayhuayna, an impressive archaeological complex with agricultural terraces and Inca structures. Machu Picchu, the final destination of the route, is one of the wonders of the world and a symbol of the Inca Empire’s grandeur. Its temples, plazas, and terraces showcase the advanced engineering and profound astronomical knowledge of this civilization. To explore the citadel, there are different circuits that allow you to discover its most important structures. For more information about the different circuits within Machu Picchu, you can click here (Machu Picchu circuits).
