Trek the Inca trail for RNIB

  • 10-19 May 2012
Don't miss out on this once in a life time opportunity to discover one of the world's "Lost Cities" - Machu Picchu, the Lost City of the Incas. The Lost City is one of the world's most fascinating and important archaeological finds, making it one of the Seven Wonders of the World. We are one of the few Challenge Teams who follow the original Inca Trail, which is ranked in the top ten trekking trails in the world! You really can't miss out on this unforgettable voyage through forgotten valleys and Andean villages, bringing you to one of the Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu. This is one of the world's most fascinating and important archaeological finds, which has been abandoned to the forest for over 500 years.

This incredible historical phenomenon was rediscovered in 1911. Why not make this the year for you to discover this hidden jewel? Peruvian local authorities have restricted the number of people allowed on the Inca Trail to just 500 at any one time (approximately 200 trekkers and 300 porters). The permits for the "Royal Inca Trail" route are few and far between - guarantee your place in this once in a life time experience now!

"I met incredible people and made great friendships while completing a physical challenge against a backdrop of breathtaking scenery and amazing historical sites." - Colin Moran, 29, Banker, Dublin
