Is Inca Trail closed in February?
Yes, The Inca Trail undergoes maintenance throughout February, with government and park personnel working to clear trailside ditches, repair bridges, and enhance the hiking experience. The heavy and continuous rain during this time can create hazardous conditions, including the risk of landslides.
Does Machu Picchu close in February?
Fortunately, Machu Picchu remains open and attracts fewer visitors during this period than any other time of the year. Most visitors start their journey in Cusco and reach Machu Picchu via the Sacred Valley, where the weather is warm and humid.
