    This Inca Bridge is a part of a mountain trail that heads west from Machu Picchu. The trail is a stone path, part of which is cut into a cliff face. A twenty-foot gap was left in this section of the carved cliff edge, over a 1,900 feet drop, that could be bridged with two tree trunks, otherwise leaving the trail impassable to outsiders.

      The Inca Bridge (sometimes spelled Inca Bridge) is a 25- to 30-minute walk from the center of Machu Picchu along a narrow path with some steep drops into the abyssal gorges below. And while many tourists hike Huayna Picchu, Machu Picchu Mountain and the Sun Gate, not many seem to take part in this alternative hike - or even know about it.
