We recommend that you condition your body properly prior to embarking on the trek. The trek can be very strenuous causing knee pain and other physical discomforts if your body is not trained to trek 6-7 hours a day.

Endeavor to go on weekly hikes at least six weeks prior to our trip, where you work your way up to hike for 5-6 hours. Find the local mountains near where you live to train your body and practice trekking. Have a regular gym routine, where you work-out and build muscle on your legs on a consistent basis. This is very important for you to have an enjoyable time.

Our chefs will be cooking all vegetarian meals. One one or two occasions, we may visit a restaurant where meat will be available. Our chefs can acomodate dietary preferences. Please let us know in advance what you would need.

At the beginning of the trek, we will be camping near glaciers where temperatures at night can get very cold. You will need to bring proper layers to stay warm. Our route also takes us to tropical areas where the temperature is very mild. When you sign up more details will be provided on what to wear and how to prepare.

This course is for spiritually minded people, who are physically conditioned to trek, who have want to visit Machu Picchu and at the same time want to learn about shamanic practices. An active interest in wanting to participate in ceremonies while we trek is crucial.

Once you sign up, you will receive emails and join our Whats App group chat where all sorts of details on how to prepare and what to bring will be answered.

Yes. We are offering the option for people to join our group for only 5 days, which can reduce the strenuousness of hiking. Price for five days is coming soon.
