Hey Meg! Thanks so much 🙂 I believe if I recall correctly, at the time I was traveling with a pair of Calvin Klein leggings that I got on sale at Marshalls or TJ Maxx. They were perfect! Good luck with the trail!

Hubby and I are doing the Inca Trail in May. What leggings did you wear? I’d rather wear leggings than trousers but so stuck on where to look!

Thanks again for this one. Can’t wait to see what you’re upto next 🙂

Actually we were there are the start of the rainy season! I can only imagine what it’s like in the truly peak weeks and months!

It sucks about the pushy crowds and fog but it’s great that you got to see beautiful sites on your way there so the journey wasn’t a loss. I’m surprised but how crowded it was, makes sense that there is a limit on the daily permits for the trail. Makes me want to risk the rain just to have less people.

Hey Adair, we assumed we’d be too tired to enjoy it and so didn’t book the extra hike to Huayna Picchu. So glad we didn’t — we were wiped!

I’ve found your blog posts about the Incan Trail so helpful! I am going in December and am wondering if anyone in your group did the extra hike to Machu Picchu Mountain or Huaynapicchu? Or were you pretty tired and likely would not have enjoyed an extra rigorous hike after three days of trekking and sleeping outside? I’ve read that the views from both are great, but also similar to what you see from the Sun Gate. I’m thinking I’ll be pretty tired after the Incan Trail so I may not want an extra three hour hike, but at the same time don’t want to miss out on anything!

I really appreciate that, Karin! So glad you found this useful. Best of luck with the hike — I’m sure you’re going to love it! What an experience to share with your mom.

Maybe it’s just me, but the pictures look amazing, fog and all (unless these are well edited… 🙂 )

I’ll be completing the 4 day hike with my mother in October, which we are both looking forward to. I hope it will be just as an amazing experience as it looks/sounds like it was for you!

Thanks for the article, by the way. Really helpful info, in a (web) world of lots of articles in varying degrees of usefulnes…!

I am booked on it in September and like you was I am really nervous about my fitness levels although I am a keen hiker back in England
Thanks
