On Day 4 of the Inca Trail, we embarked on the final push toward Machu Picchu after a night of heavy rain. Battling fatigue and excitement, our group, accompanied by the loyal stray dog Chico, navigated misty valleys and ancient ruins. The magical moment of stepping through the Sun Gate to witness the Lost City of the Incas was overwhelming, blending awe and relief. Join us as we reflect on this unforgettable day filled with emotional highs, breathtaking views, and the bonds formed along the trail.
