Lares Trek a Machu Picchu 4 Dias

No, it is not necessary. Kantu Peru Tours provides all the required equipment, including camping tents, sleeping bags, inflatable mattresses or mats, and kitchen equipment.

During the trek, a team of muleteers and horses will transport the camping equipment, food, first aid supplies, and other necessary items. They will also carry your personal belongings, with a maximum weight allowance of 7 kg per person.

If you have luggage that you don't need for the Lares Trek, you can store it at your hotel in Cusco, as most hotels offer this service free of charge. If your hotel does not provide this service, Kantu Peru Tours will safely store your luggage at their office.

During the Lares Trek, especially on the first and second days, there are no permanent toilet facilities at the campsites. To address this, portable toilet tents will be provided for your convenience. On the third day, you will have access to toilets at the thermal baths in Lares, and on the fourth day, you will find facilities in Aguas Calientes.

Electricity is not available during most of the trek, so bring extra batteries or a portable charger. On the second night, near Cuncani, you can access electricity for an extra cost. Electricity is also available on the final night in Aguas Calientes.

Safe drinking water is usually provided or can be treated with purification tablets. Always follow guide instructions regarding water sources.

Acclimate to high altitude in Cusco, train for physical endurance, and ensure you have the appropriate gear and vaccinations. Follow any additional advice from your tour operator.

In adverse weather conditions or if trails are closed, the tour operator may adjust the itinerary or provide alternative arrangements. Flexibility and understanding are key.

After taking the train from Aguas Calientes to Ollantaytambo, our representative will transport you back to Cusco.

Guides are trained in first aid and can provide initial care. For serious issues, evacuation procedures are in place, but it’s important to have travel insurance that covers medical emergencies.
