Once arrived in Aguas Calientes, travelers have 2 further alternatives. If you're completed with roughing it, you can go directly to a hotel or hostel. The other alternative is to throw up a tent in the tiny camping location next to the river and by the bridge that goes up to the ruins. This is the perfect place from which to start if you're preparing an early morning hike up to the ruins. Although the buses from Aguas Calientes take the road with switchbacks, there is a narrow trail that will get trekkers up there in about an hour and a half.
To get back to Cusco, travelers can take the identical route back. Yet another alternative is to walk from the train station in Aguas Calientes to Ollantaytambo. The final option - take the train!
