As has been done regularly since 2000, the Inca Trail will be closed for maintenance work from February 1 to February 28.

However, as clarified by The Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism of Peru and PROMPERU, the citadel of Machu Picchu will remain open to the public.

The visitors’ entrance to the Inca Trail will reopen on March 1, once the maintenance and cleaning work carried out by the Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary Headquarters SERNANP in coordination with Cusco´s Decentralized Directorate of Culture has been completed.
