Salkantay Trek 4 Days 3 Nights is a remarkable alternative to the traditional Inca Trail, designed for travelers seeking remote landscapes and high-altitude adventure in the Peruvian Andes.

1.- How difficult is the Salkantay Trek 4 Days 3 Nights?
The Salkantay Trek 4 Days 3 Nights is a physically demanding route that combines long hiking distances with significant elevation gain. Travelers walk several hours per day across mountain terrain, including steep ascents and descents at high altitude. This trek is best suited for people in good physical condition who are comfortable hiking for extended periods in the Andes.
2.- Do I need a permit to hike the Salkantay Trek?
No official permits are required to complete the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu. Unlike other regulated routes, this trail does not have daily entry limits, which allows travelers more flexibility when planning their trip. This makes it an accessible option for those booking closer to their travel dates.
3.- What is the highest point reached on this trek?
The highest point reached during this itinerary is Incachiriasca Pass at 5,100 meters (16,732 ft). Hiking at this elevation requires physical endurance and proper acclimatization. The pass offers wide mountain views and represents the most challenging section of the entire trek.
4.- How many days should I acclimatize before the trek?
It is strongly recommended to spend at least two days acclimatizing before starting the Salkantay Trek. Staying in Cusco or the Sacred Valley helps your body adjust to altitude and reduces the chances of altitude-related discomfort during the hike, especially on the higher mountain passes.
5.- What type of accommodation is included during the trek?
The Salkantay Trek 4 Days 3 Nights includes two nights of camping in remote mountain areas and one night in a hotel in Aguas Calientes. Campsites are located in isolated high-Andean locations and offer a simple but comfortable setup after long hiking days.
6.- Does this trek include part of the Inca Trail?
Yes, on the third day the route connects with a preserved section of the Inca Trail. Hikers walk along stone paths built centuries ago and visit important archaeological sites such as Llactapata before continuing toward Km 82.
7.- What meals are included on the Salkantay Trek?
All meals during the trekking days are included and prepared by a professional trekking cook. The food is designed to provide enough energy for high-altitude hiking, including a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and local ingredients suitable for mountain conditions.
8.- Can I rent trekking equipment for this hike?
Yes, travelers can rent essential trekking equipment such as sleeping bags and trekking poles. Pack animals are used to transport camping gear and food, allowing hikers to walk with a light daypack and focus on enjoying the trail.
9.- Is altitude sickness common on the Salkantay Trek?
Due to the high elevations reached on this route, altitude-related symptoms can occur, especially on the second day. Proper acclimatization, hydration, and pacing are important to minimize discomfort while hiking through the high Andes.
10.- How do we reach Machu Picchu at the end of the trek?
After completing the hiking portion of the route, travelers continue by private transport and train to reach Aguas Calientes. Machu Picchu is visited the following day by bus, allowing time to rest before exploring the archaeological site.
11.- What is the best time of year to hike the Salkantay Trek?
The most favorable months to hike the Salkantay Trek are between April and November. During this period, weather conditions are generally more stable, though temperatures at higher elevations can still be cold, especially at night.
12.- Is the Salkantay Trek suitable for first-time trekkers?
While the trek is demanding, first-time trekkers with good physical fitness can complete it successfully with proper preparation. Previous hiking experience is helpful, but acclimatization and a steady pace are key factors for enjoying the journey.
Before You Go
Important Travel Information
At Cusco Journeys, we’re committed to making your adventure in Peru memorable, safe, and easy to enjoy. This brief guide includes the most important details to review before starting your trek or tour — from altitude preparation and luggage management to Machu Picchu entry and health tips.
Take a moment to read it carefully; it will help you get ready and experience the magic of the Andes with comfort and confidence.
Briefing Before the Trek
All pre-trek briefings are personally conducted at your hotel in Cusco around 5:00 pm, one or two day before your trek or tour begins. The meeting lasts approximately 30 to 45 minutes and is an essential part of your preparation.
During this session, our guide will go over the itinerary in detail, provide your duffel bag, and answer any final questions to ensure you’re fully prepared for your adventure.
Acclimatization in Cusco
It’s very important to be well acclimated to the altitude before starting any trek. Cusco lies at 3,400 meters (11,150 ft) above sea level, and your body needs time to adjust to the thinner air.
We recommend that you arrive in Cusco at least 2 or 3 days before your trek begins to prevent altitude sickness and to enjoy your trip without discomfort.
What to Do Before Your Trek
During your acclimatization days, take it easy and explore some nearby attractions:
Cusco City Tour: Discover the Main Square, the Cathedral, and the Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha).
Sacred Valley Tour: Visit Pisac, Ollantaytambo, and the famous Maras Salt Mines.
Moray & Maras Excursion: Learn about ancient Inca agricultural techniques.
Q’eswachaka Bridge Tour: Experience the last Inca handwoven bridge still used today.
Rainbow Mountain Tour: Hike to one of Peru’s most stunning natural wonders, famous for its vibrant, multi-colored slopes.
These short tours are perfect for getting used to the altitude while discovering the region’s rich history.
Trek Balance Payment (in Cusco)
If you have an outstanding balance, please make the payment at least two days before your trek or tour. Otherwise, your reservation cannot be confirmed.
Whenever possible, we kindly ask you to settle the remaining balance in cash (USD or Peruvian Soles) during your briefing session. There are several ATMs along Avenida Solwhere you can withdraw both currencies.
You may also pay by credit/debit card or PayPal, either online or in person; however, please note that a 5% service fee will be applied by our payment gateways (Niubiz and PayPal). Unfortunately, we are unable to accept bank checks or traveler’s checks for balance payments.
Duffel Bag or Canvas Case
You’ll receive a duffel bag or canvas case during the briefing. Size: 60 × 24 × 22 cm (23.6 × 9.45 × 8.66 in), Maximum weight: 6 kg / 13 lb, including clothes and personal items.
Our team of porters will carry your bag throughout the trek and hand it back to you at each camp. Remember that this limit includes your sleeping bag and any personal belongings you wish to take.
Can I store my luggage at your office?
Absolutely!During your trip, you may store your main luggage safely at our office (arrange it with us during your briefing or by email) or at your hotel, both free of charge.
Any items you won’t need during the trek can remain at your hotel — most hotels offer secure luggage storage. Please avoid leaving valuables in your bags; instead, place them in the hotel safe and request an itemized receipt, as many insurance companies require this in case of loss.
For added security, you can also store important items such as credit cards in a sealed and signed envelope.
Machu Picchu Entrance Circuits and Schedule
Machu Picchu now operates with specific timed entries and fixed circuits to preserve the site and ensure an enjoyable experience for all visitors.
Main Circuits
Circuit 1: Upper viewpoints and panoramic terraces
Circuit 2: Central area of the citadel
Circuit 3: Lower sector and agricultural terraces
For our Inca Trail groups, the standard visit is usually Circuit 3, around 8:00 or 9:00 a.m., depending on ticket availability and government regulations. After completing your route, park rangers will guide you toward the exit — re-entry is not allowed.
If you wish to explore another route or stay longer, you can request an additional entrance ticket (subject to availability and extra cost).
Pick-Up of Guests
All pick-ups are made from your hotel within Cusco City. We recommend staying in the historic center for easier access. Our guide will confirm your pick-up time one day before the tour, but please note that it may vary by 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic and hotel locations.
Cusco is an ancient city with narrow, cobbled streets, and some hotels or Airbnbs may not have direct vehicle access. If your accommodation is in such an area, we’ll coordinate the closest possible meeting point for your convenience.
Return from Machu Picchu to Cusco
Returning from Machu Picchu involves several steps, but don’t worry — everything is included in your tour. After visiting Machu Picchu, you’ll take a 25-minute bus down to Aguas Calientes (buses operate on a first-come, first-served basis).
From there, you’ll board a train to Ollantaytambo; your guide will provide the tickets and indicate your departure time. Please arrive at the platform 30 minutes before departure.
The train ride takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes, followed by a 2-hour bus journey back to Cusco City.
Strikes and Demonstrations
Occasionally, strikes or protests may occur in Peru, which can affect roads or train schedules. In these cases, Cusco Journeys will make every effort to maintain your itinerary or adjust departure times if needed. Your safety always comes first, and all decisions will be made to protect it.
Lost Objects
You are responsible for your personal belongings throughout the tour. Please be mindful of where you leave your items and make sure to remove everything from our vans, tents, and restaurants after each stop. Avoid leaving anything unattended during the hike, as other trekkers or staff might mistake it for lost property.

Before Yo Go
Travel Information
At Cusco Journeys, we’re committed to making your adventure in Peru memorable, safe, and easy to enjoy. This brief guide includes the most important details to review before starting your trek or tour — from altitude preparation and luggage management to Machu Picchu entry and health tips.
Take a moment to read it carefully; it will help you get ready and experience the magic of the Andes with comfort and confidence.
Briefing Before the Trek
All pre-trek briefings are personally conducted at your hotel in Cusco around 5:00 pm, one or two day before your trek or tour begins. The meeting lasts approximately 30 to 45 minutes and is an essential part of your preparation.
During this session, our guide will go over the itinerary in detail, provide your duffel bag, and answer any final questions to ensure you’re fully prepared for your adventure.
Acclimatization in Cusco
It’s very important to be well acclimated to the altitude before starting any trek. Cusco lies at 3,400 meters (11,150 ft) above sea level, and your body needs time to adjust to the thinner air.
We recommend that you arrive in Cusco at least 2 or 3 days before your trek begins to prevent altitude sickness and to enjoy your trip without discomfort.
What to Do Before Your Trek
During your acclimatization days, take it easy and explore some nearby attractions:
Cusco City Tour: Discover the Main Square, the Cathedral, and the Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha).
Sacred Valley Tour: Visit Pisac, Ollantaytambo, and the famous Maras Salt Mines.
Moray & Maras Excursion: Learn about ancient Inca agricultural techniques.
Q’eswachaka Bridge Tour: Experience the last Inca handwoven bridge still used today.
Rainbow Mountain Tour: Hike to one of Peru’s most stunning natural wonders, famous for its vibrant, multi-colored slopes.
These short tours are perfect for getting used to the altitude while discovering the region’s rich history.
Trek Balance Payment (in Cusco)
If you have an outstanding balance, please make the payment at least two days before your trek or tour. Otherwise, your reservation cannot be confirmed.
Whenever possible, we kindly ask you to settle the remaining balance in cash (USD or Peruvian Soles) during your briefing session. There are several ATMs along Avenida Solwhere you can withdraw both currencies.
You may also pay by credit/debit card or PayPal, either online or in person; however, please note that a 5% service fee will be applied by our payment gateways (Niubiz and PayPal). Unfortunately, we are unable to accept bank checks or traveler’s checks for balance payments.
Duffel Bag or Canvas Case
You’ll receive a duffel bag or canvas case during the briefing. Size: 60 × 24 × 22 cm (23.6 × 9.45 × 8.66 in), Maximum weight: 6 kg / 13 lb, including clothes and personal items.
Our team of porters will carry your bag throughout the trek and hand it back to you at each camp. Remember that this limit includes your sleeping bag and any personal belongings you wish to take.
Can I store my luggage at your office?
Absolutely!During your trip, you may store your main luggage safely at our office (arrange it with us during your briefing or by email) or at your hotel, both free of charge.
Any items you won’t need during the trek can remain at your hotel — most hotels offer secure luggage storage. Please avoid leaving valuables in your bags; instead, place them in the hotel safe and request an itemized receipt, as many insurance companies require this in case of loss.
For added security, you can also store important items such as credit cards in a sealed and signed envelope.
Machu Picchu Entrance Circuits and Schedule
Machu Picchu now operates with specific timed entries and fixed circuits to preserve the site and ensure an enjoyable experience for all visitors.
Circuit 1: Upper viewpoints and panoramic terraces
Circuit 2: Central area of the citadel
Circuit 3: Lower sector and agricultural terraces
For our Inca Trail groups, the standard visit is usually Circuit 3, around 8:00 or 9:00 a.m., depending on ticket availability and government regulations. After completing your route, park rangers will guide you toward the exit, re-entry is not allowed.
If you wish to explore another route or stay longer, you can request an additional entrance ticket (subject to availability and extra cost).
Pick-Up of Guests
All pick-ups are made from your hotel within Cusco City. We recommend staying in the historic center for easier access. Our guide will confirm your pick-up time one day before the tour, but please note that it may vary by 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic and hotel locations.
Cusco is an ancient city with narrow, cobbled streets, and some hotels or Airbnbs may not have direct vehicle access. If your accommodation is in such an area, we’ll coordinate the closest possible meeting point for your convenience.
Return from Machu Picchu to Cusco
Returning from Machu Picchu involves several steps, but don’t worry — everything is included in your tour. After visiting Machu Picchu, you’ll take a 25-minute bus down to Aguas Calientes (buses operate on a first-come, first-served basis).
From there, you’ll board a train to Ollantaytambo; your guide will provide the tickets and indicate your departure time. Please arrive at the platform 30 minutes before departure.
The train ride takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes, followed by a 2-hour bus journey back to Cusco City.
Group Tours
Our group tours bring together travelers of different ages and fitness levels. Everyone can walk at their own pace, and our guide will manage the group so that all participants enjoy the experience comfortably.
If changes to the itinerary are needed, the guide will decide after consulting with the group.
