You will most likely have porters to carry the majority of your gear on the Inca Trail. Any gear you won’t need on your trek should be left at your hotel in their luggage storage or, in some cases, it can be left at your trek operator’s office. Porters are not allowed to carry more than 25 kg (55 lbs) and 5 kg (11 lbs) of that are reserved for their personal items. Travelers should bring a small pack to carry a light fleece, poncho, water, snacks, sunscreen, and bug repellant.
