Very helpful video. One quick question: how often do you need to use the hiking poles? I did 100km hike in 2 days and hold on the pole the whole time. Not sure if I really need it. Going yo Inca trail next month. Thanks
@explorinwithlaurin

I think the hiking poles are definitely useful on the downhill sections - especially with how many "steps" there are.

Great video. Thanks for the awesome details. We are also going this November. How cold or hot does it get on the track in November? Do you shower (wet or dry) on camp sites? Thanks
@explorinwithlaurin

Awesome! Wishing you a safe journey! We did not shower-just a good wipe down at camp eat night and some dry shampoo. There are showers available on the last night, but we opted out. The temperature swings quite a bit and there is no real way to predict what it will be day of, so pack plenty of layers!

Thanks for this, did you have access to your stuff in the duffle bags at the end of each day's camp? Like say for only taking one spare change of socks each day or jacket for one day and not another

Yes! Your duffle is waiting for you in your tent each afternoon! This video only covers what we actually carried with us each day so all the additional spares were in our duffle. As long as you have things protected in dry bags, one set of spare socks should be sufficient!

Of course! Documenting the trip is important! There is no power to charge your decides. We utilized power banks to charge our Devices at camp each night. We used an iPhone as well as a go pro. For our go pro, we purchased a few spare batteries as a precaution. We have a few links in the video Description to the power banks and spare batteries we utilized. The size power bank will depend on what type of device you want to have at full charge Every day! Hope this helps and that you enjoy your trip!

Thankfully there are toilets along the route (nothing you will be too excited about but they are a private place to do your biz), however there is likely a good 2-3 miles between each toilet so use them when you can! Otherwise, you'll have to scout out the best bush!

@@explorinwithlaurin The trail is narrow with the slope on one side going up down on the other side. There are not a lot of bushes ( until you get to the jungle ). You'll just have to do the best you can. If you have an issue that serious ( and I came close ), you won't care about privacy much!

Not for your personal pack - but there is one for the porters! For the one on your back we recommend nothing bigger than a 22L and to pack light! You pack it you carry it up those steps 😅

So we had our rain jackets which with our other layers was warm enough but it definitely gets cold up there so if you run cold another layer in your pack isn’t a bad idea. Always better safe than sorry 😃
