Plan and enjoy hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru with this comprehensive guidebook. The third edition features three routes taking from 2-7 days, covering the Classic trail (4-5 days), the longer trek from Mollepata (6-7 days) and the Shortest option (2 days).

Step-by-step sections provide detailed advice on planning, preparation and tackling the trails, including a drop-down map showing all three routes, as well as a site plan of Machu Picchu ruins. The book also includes background information on Inca culture, stonework, Andean wildlife and modern Peru, plus practical tips on packing and managing altitude sickness.

With over 80 photographs in full colour, printed on waterproof paper, this guidebook is the perfect companion for walkers looking to explore one of South America's most iconic trails. A phrasebook in Spanish, Quechua and English adds an extra layer of support for those planning their trip.
