With the participation of professionals and conservation workers, maintenance and conservation work is being carried out on the Inca Trail Network, according to the headquarters of the National Archaeological Park of Machu Picchu.
Due to the geological problems registered in the Ccarpamayo sector, the Inca road network is being accessed through the right bank of the Vilcanota River. For this purpose, road delimitation works are being carried out so as not to enter the farmland and the railway line, in safeguarding the integrity of visitors, having placed security tapes red, with which they are informed of this prohibition.
Currently, work is being intensified in the sectors of Salapunku, Qhanabamba, Wayraqpunqo, Punchayunuyoq, Ñustahispana, Qoriwayrachina, as reported by the person in charge of maintaining the Inca Trail Network of Machu Picchu, Francisco Huarcaya.
In addition to this, professional personnel from the Culture sector carry out awareness workshops aimed at the porters who use the Inca Trail, providing them with recommendations to access the bridle paths, from Km 82 Piscacucho to Qoriwayrachina and not use the railway to avoid putting the physical integrity of visitors at risk.
“Throughout the year, maintenance work is carried out on the roadway, wooden bridges, rainwater drainage channels, structural consolidation of walls, cutting and cleaning of vegetation, maintenance of handrails, conservation of camping areas and maintenance of the infrastructure of basic services. said the head of the National Archaeological Park of Machu Picchu, José Bastante.
