This is an excellent walk up the mountain opposite of Machu Picchu that offers breathtaking views of Machu Picchu and the surrounding area. It can be steep and part of it requires going up wooden ladder rungs that get slippery in the wet season and tends to deter many hikers. The scenery is worth the hike though.
