Inca Trail Trekking

Trekking the Inca Trail to the lost city of Machu Picchu was named one of the new Seven Wonders of the World and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The site is the most familiar icon with its spectacular mountain top location in the Andes. You can visit Machu Piccu without trekking the Inca Trail, but most hikers recommend the trail as the perfect way to reach the site. The Inca Trail is justifiably famous for its spectacular scenery, with the mountain tops usually snow-capped between June and October.  Hotels in Machu Picchu
