Appropriate clothing along the Inca Trail
Hiking pants and T-shirts are commonly used during the day, complemented by a sweater or fleece and waterproof jackets if cloudy or rainy. It is very convenient to have light raingear available in the daypack (rain poncho or jacket and/or rain pants) as the weather changes easily and rains can suddenly occur. At night, warm clothing is required in Aguas Calientes and Machu Picchu, although the temperature is usually warmer than in Cusco due to the lower altitude. The rest of necessary implements are included in the "What we recommend that you bring" list.

Climate
Cusco's climate is divided into two differentiated seasons: the rainy season, from November to April (the heaviest rainfalls occurring usually between January - March); and the dry season, from May to October. The dry season is colder, so temperatures can drop to below 0 degrees at night.

Along the Inca Trail, temperatures range from 15-20ºC during the day if it's sunny, to 05-10ºC if cloudy or rainy. At Machu Picchu and Aguas Calientes, at lower altitude, temperatures are usually warmer though warm clothes are still recommended at night.
