Choquequirao To Machu Picchu Trek-9 Days
Le voyage
9 jours de Choquequirao à Machu Picchu : le trek ultime
TrueAndes vous invite à l'un des treks les plus ambitieux et les plus enrichissants des Andes. Ceci expédition de 9 jours relie la « ville sœur » de Choquequirao avec le légendaire Machu Picchu. Contrairement aux circuits standards, cet itinéraire traverse des cols de montagne isolés, des canyons profonds et des forêts nuageuses où peu de voyageurs s'aventurent.
Nous avons conçu ce voyage pour les vrais explorateurs. Vous camperez dans des endroits vierges, explorerez en profondeur les ruines peu fréquentées de Choquequirao, puis marcherez à travers la chaîne de Vilcabamba pour atteindre la vallée de Santa Teresa et enfin, Machu Picchu. Il s'agit d'une aventure stimulante et unique, soutenue par notre équipe d'experts en trekking.

Questions avant votre départ
Des réponses claires pour préparer ce voyage.
Est-ce plus difficile que Salkantay ?
Yes. The Choquequirao to Machu Picchu Trek is generally more demanding due to its longer duration, remote terrain, steep ascents and descents, high mountain passes, and several consecutive days of trekking. Good physical preparation and previous hiking experience are highly recommended.
Puis-je recharger mes appareils ?
Electricity is very limited during the remote sections of the trek. We strongly recommend bringing a high-capacity power bank or portable solar charger. Charging opportunities may become available in some communities or accommodations later in the journey, but should not be relied upon.
What happens if I get injured or become ill during the trek?
Our experienced trekking guide will assess the situation and follow the appropriate emergency procedures. Because significant sections of the Choquequirao route are remote and far from road access, an evacuation may require assistance to reach the nearest accessible road or medical facility. An emergency horse is available where terrain and conditions permit. We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance that specifically covers high-altitude trekking, medical treatment and emergency evacuation
Y a-t-il des villages ?
Yes. The route passes through remote Andean communities such as Yanama and Totora before descending toward the cloud forest and the Machu Picchu region. Services are limited, so trekkers should not depend on villages for supplies.
Ai-je besoin de crampons
No. Crampons are not normally required for the Choquequirao to Machu Picchu Trek, as this is a high-altitude trekking route rather than a technical ice-climbing expedition. However, trail conditions can vary with weather and season. Good-quality trekking boots with excellent grip are essential, and trekking poles are strongly recommended for the long ascents and steep descents.
Le train est-il inclus ?
Yes. The return train from Aguas Calientes to Ollantaytambo is included, followed by private transportation to Cusco, according to the confirmed itinerary. TrueAndes coordinates these transfers in advance so that your return journey after Machu Picchu is comfortable and properly organized.
What are the camping conditions like during the trek?
TrueAndes provides quality trekking tents and comfortable raised sleeping mattresses for the camping nights. Camps are established along the trekking route in designated or appropriate camping areas, depending on local conditions. Our support team manages the camp setup, meals and essential camping logistics so travelers can focus on the experience. This is an authentic remote Andean expedition, not lodge or glamping accommodation.
