BEGINNERS

When you are traveling it's very important to know what to pack, especially if you are doing a 7-hour hike.

he Latin American History students (Juniors), went on a trip to Cusco, Peru and the most important part of the trip was the hike to Machu Picchu.

Our hike was on first days of September, the weather during the trail was pretty sunny and hot. So, if you are planning to travel on those dates be sure to pack a lot of water, at least 2 liters, snacks (granola bars, fruits or sandwiches), sunscreen, a cap or hat, bug spray and extra clothes if you are spending the night in the Machu Picchu town. Most importantly don’t forget to have your phone or camera with you all the time, because the views are beautiful and you need to “capture the moment.
