If you fancy climbing Huayna Picchu mountain, the iconic hill behind the city, you can. Talk to your tour company before-hand as you will need to purchase a permit and the daily number is very limited. Be warned, it is a steep and precarious path, not at all maintained to the same standard of the Inca Trail. You will need to be able to cope with being on exposed stretches and remember, being up at the top is only half way.
Good luck! |
