Altitud for Classic Inca Trail Hiking

The altitude in the Inca Trail can affect anyone; generally anything over 3,000 meters affect to travellers. Altitude sickness is caused by the lack of oxygen which can be up to a third less than at sea level. No one understands why some people are affected and others not and age, level of fitness and strength is no indication of how well you will fare. Be aware that altitude sickness in the Inca Trail can be serious, so if your guide advises you to rest or descend, please do as instructed.

As the Inca Trail is a mixture of ascents and descents, altitude sickness is often short term and suffering from it does not necessarily mean you will be unable to complete the trek.
