Inca trail - Day 3

Longuest day with 18km and 2 passes.
We start from 3640m up to 4000m (Kununakay) then down to 3300m and up again to 3700m to the 2nd pass of the day (Sayaqmarka) where we have lunch
Suddenly the rain arrived making the downhill of 1000m more difficult on those very high steps

Sayaqmarka

Winawayna (forever young in quechua)

The we arrived at the camp at 2700m called Winawayna (forever young). There is a very nice inca site just 5 mins from there. I was told by the guides that most of the trekkers don´t go to see this site because they are too tired after the 18km trek of the day. Unbelievable!!!
