Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (our biggest challenge yet)

Join us as we face our biggest challenge yet: hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu! We did the Classic 4 Day / 3 Night Inca Trail to Machu Picchu trek with Alpaca Expeditions. This challenging hike is 26 miles long and takes you to nearly 14k feet of elevation!

This was such an important moment for us crossing off HIKING THE INCA TRAIL which has been at the very top of our bucket list for years now. We can both honestly say it was equally the most challenging and rewarding experience of our lives thus far and we would do it again in a heartbeat. Every step we took was difficult in the high altitude of the Andes Mountains, but it was so worth it as we were surrounded by the most stunning landscapes we had ever seen at every turn.

Thank you to our Inca Trail tour operator, Alpaca Expeditions, who were incredible. And special thanks to our guides, Ted + Will! We could not have done it without you.
