The Inca Trail is a high-altitude trek in Peru that leads to the ancient city of Machu Picchu.
The highest point on the classic Inca Trail is the Warmiwañusca Pass, also known as Dead Woman's Pass, which stands at an elevation of 4,215 meters (13,828 feet) above sea level.
The average altitude of the Inca Trail is around 3,000 meters (9,800 feet) above sea level.
Hikers on the trail may experience altitude sickness due to the high altitude, so it is recommended to acclimate to the altitude before starting the trek.
