The trail from Tawka to the summit is an original Inca trail that connected the villages of Chinqhero with the Sacred Valley of the Inca and crossed Wiracocha Inca’s residence, which was considered a place of royalty. After the summit, you start to descend for about an hour through a canyon made by the small river which also has different types of Andean flora and fauna and the opportunity to see Alpacas and Llamas once in the archaeological site of Huchuyqosqo you will have enough time to explore and have the due explanation from the tour guide. Also, you will enjoy a picnic lunch in the area with amazing views of the Inca site and the mountains of Vilcanota Mountain range then we start the last part of the descent to the Sacred Valley precisely towards Lamay, a small town from where a car will pick us up to take us to Ollantaytambo train station, from there, we will take a train to the village of Aguas Calientes town where we will have dinner and spend the night to visit Machu Picchu the next day.
Most of the people who visit Machu Picchu are the people who take the train and to get there, of course, the most important reason for them is to know Machupicchu. But in your case, after you did the Huchuy Qosqo Trek, you will not just know Machu Picchu; you will understand and feel the meaning of the Inca civilizations deeply. After breakfast early in the morning, we take the bus up to Machu Picchu; the bus takes about 25 minutes approximately to the main entrance of Machu Picchu. The point is to arrive at 6:00 a.m at Machupicchu to see it almost without people and enjoy the sunrise. After 20 to 30 minutes, you will have a guided tour service for about 2:30 hours in Machupicchu then we will leave you free to explore the lost city of the Incas. Then if you wish you can go to the sun gate or the Inca bridge. If you booked the tickets for Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu mountains, you could climb.
