Plaza de Armaz in Cuzco - we spend 2 days here, acclimatising to the altitude before we set off on the trail.
The training walk takes us to Sacsayhuaman, an ancient ruin near Cusco.
The start of the Inca Trail - Chilca
Sitting at 4,200m above sea level, Dead Woman's Pass is the highest climb we conquer on the trail.
Lunch break anyone? Our chefs will keep your tummy full with delicious avocado and tomato salads, pasta dishes, cold meats, spicy rice, soups, potatoes, pudding, coffee and of course traditional 'Cocoa Tea'!
On the evening of Day 6 we stay at a hostel called Winaywayna. Here there is an opportunity to let your hair down with the local DJ and friendly bar making sure you celebrate - Inca style!
Walk through the Sungate (Inti Punku) early on the morning of Day 7 - through these walls a magnificent view of Machu Picchu awaits!
