Within the 45 kilometers of paved Inca trail from Piscacucho to the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu, around 200 species of birds can be observed. The Inca trail has 12 different microclimates<\/strong> and the altitude variation varies between 2700 and 4200 meters.<\/p>\n

All these geographical factors make it possible to observe a great variety of birds on the Inca trail<\/strong>. In this article we will list and describe the most representative and colorful birds of this Inca trail to Machu Picchu.<\/p>\n

Many bird watchers see a masked trogon for the first time in the section between Phuyupatamarca and Wi\u00f1aywayna or a torrent duck on the Urubamba river. The best time to watch birds on the Inca Trail<\/strong> is in the morning when these colorful little animals wake up very hungry.<\/p>\n
