Join Ultra Machu Picchu Qhapac Ñan The Inca Trail Race 2026
Ultra Machu Picchu (UM 2026) is a high-altitude trail running ultramarathon in Cusco, Peru, inspired by the Qhapaq Ñan—the legendary Inca road system that once connected the Andes under Tawantinsuyo.
In this edition, we run a specific ancestral corridor: the route that linked Antisuyu to Cusco, the capital of the empire, and historically connected Cusco with Machu Picchu. You won’t just race a course—you’ll move through a living legacy of stone paths, mountain passes, Sacred Valley terrain, and Andean history.
This is why many runners describe the experience as “Inca Trail” spirit: not a label, but a meaning—running on ancestral Inca routes with a finish that honors the heart of the Andes: Cusco.
Are you ready to be part of this unique adventure, where culture and history merge in every kilometer?
Course details
But that's not all. The route will take you through mountain passes as high as cachicata, an Inca quarry from which megaliths were extracted for the construction of Inca cities such as Ollantaytambo, where the view extends over the Sacred Valley and the peaks of Chicon and Wakay Willka (Veronica), offering you panoramas that seem to touch the sky.
And at the end of the tour, you will be welcomed in the historic city of Cusco, the capital of Tawantinsuyu, where the vibrant and ancestral culture will envelop you.
Get ready for a unique adventure along the sacred trails of Qhapaq Ñan, in the heart of the Cusco Andes!
Start address: Ollantaytambo, Perú
