We employ around 90 porters. They are all farmers by trade and are native Quechua speakers. They are mainly from the three villages of Huacawasi, Calca and Patacancha. Along the Inca trail they are called our “Orange Machines,” our Super Porters. Our incredible porters are ready to carry your camping gear, food at all times and they are happy to help you with your necessities. It is important to us that we employ porters from the local villages, because by doing so we are supporting their local economies and supplying them with a reliable income.
Most of them have children and need employment. Orange Nation makes sure that all of our porters families are supported and ensure the children are educated and supplied with necessary equipment like books and notebooks.
Remember the survival of the Inca trail would be impossible if these local people were not with you!
