If you’re aiming to conquer the legendary Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, one of the most renowned and sought-after treks in the world, be aware that availability is extremely limited. The Peruvian government regulates the trek’s capacity annually, so it’s essential to consider factors like the time of year and group size.
Each day, only 500 permits are issued—200 for travelers and 300 for the indispensable support staff, including guides, porters, and cooks. This careful regulation ensures an unforgettable experience along this iconic path to the Wonder of the World.
