Lares Trek + Short Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in 5 Days & 4 Nights

Posted on 22 September, 2017 by Larestrek

You can combine a part of the Inca trail with the Lares trek! This way you can see the local people living the way their families have been for hundreds of years as well as enjoying the history left behind by the Incas along the Inca Trail.

The Peruvian government has strict limitations on how many people are permitted to use the Inca Trail (permits are issued to about 200 trekkers per day and about 300 porters/guides with a total of 500 permits issued daily). We recommend booking the Inca Trail as early as possible, sometimes even 6 months in advance!

We also recommend booking the Inca Trail trek before booking your hotels, flights, etc., since Inca Trail permits are limited!

Daily departures are available throughout the year (March through January-February the Inca Trail is closed), even though the recommended period for this trek is April to October because it is the dry season.
