Over 13400 domestic and foreign tourists hiked Inca Trail to Machu Picchu Archeological Park since its reopening on April 1, the anthropologist and head of the archeological park Fernando Astete Victoria reported.
He also noted that the tourist flow is normal along the alternative route toward the country's main tourist destination affected by landslides.
The route is lined with 17 archaeological sites: Salapunku, Q’anabamba, Willkarakay, Q’entimarka, Patahuasi, Runkuraqay, Sayaqmarka, Qonchamarka, Phuyupatamarka, Yunkapata, Wiñaywayna, Intipunku, Choquesuysuy, Chachabamba, Waynaq’ente, Torontoy and Qorihuayrachina.
“The National Institute of Culture (INC) is responsible for the maintenance
of Inca Trail as well as its monitoring and surveillance in any emergency case,” the anthropologist and head of the Park said after remarking that tourists are primarily young people.
