Chat on WhatsAppThis is my second time traveling abroad. My first time was in Spain. I did some light hiking there, and I liked it. So when I heard there is a hiking option for Machu Picchu, I jumped on it with my friend.
I did not do much training specifically for this trip. I believe that any normally built person can finish the hike. The challenging part is fighting the altitude sickness. It was a huge burden to me. Usually it takes 1-2 days to get used to it, but it has been 4 days, and I still feel the headache.
The items suggested by the site were very helpful to our hike. For example, they suggested to bring layers of clothing, not only to protect you against the cold, but also in case of getting wet, extra clothing will come in handy. Overall the trip was challenging and fun. I would suggest my friends to try it.
