Inca Jungle Trail

This Alternative Inca Trail option, called the Machu Picchu Inca Jungle (Inca jungle trail), allows you to appreciate the lush landscapes of the north west side of the city of Cusco. It is a walking tour combined with bicycle rides (optional), arriving on the 4th day to the amazing Machu Picchu.

Day 1: CUSCO – ABRA MALAGA – SANTA MARIA (5 hours of downhill biking.)

You will be picked up from your hotels and head towards the Sacred Valley of the Incas, where we can appreciate beautiful and picturesque natural attractions like Chincheros and the Sacred Valley of the Incas. We will arrive at about noon to Abra Malaga (4,350 meters above sea level), where our guide will give us a safety talk. It will be the starting point of our bike tour, and as we descend we will find different flora and fauna: ichu, high altitude bushes and warm climate vegetation to finally find vegetation of the area of high forest, orchards and rivers. We will arrive to St Mary at 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. It will be our first night in the hostel.
