Prepare in Cuzco to Machu Picchu in a week
’’’When to go’’’ - April and May since the June through August crowds haven't yet arrived and the rainy season is over. September and October are also quieter and generally dry, but the hillsides are brown and the sky is sometimes hazy. January and February, the height of the rainy season, are a big no-no.
’’’What to Pack for the Inca Trail’’’ - Cotton pants, both long and short sleeved T-shirts, a light sweater, fleece and rain jackets, rugged sneakers or hiking boots, sunscreen and a hat, toilet paper, and, definitely, an anti-bacterial hand cleanser as well as anti-diarrheal medication
’’’What to Pack for the Jungle’’’ - Light pants for walking, shorts for the lodge, bandannas for the sweat-inducing humidity, inexpensive insoles to fit inside the rubber boots provided for you, yellow fever vaccination card and anti-malarial medication
’’’What to Pack for the Weavers’ Route Trek’’’ - Hiking boots; a washcloth for morning ablutions; a pillowcase (you can stuff it with clothes at night); extra gloves and socks--a lifesaver if your primary pair gets wet; a thermometer to know just how bitter the night's temperature is.
Since this itinerary has hiking the last part of the Inca Trail, you need a permit—only 500 of which are issued each day and only available for groups—so you will need to book at least four months in advance to get one.
