    Take Me There

    Tips

    June 10, 2020

    An absolute highlight. The way up there is very difficult. And you should be free from giddiness. The stairs are very narrow, but always insured with steel cables.

      If you want to go up here, you need a lot. First of all, an extra permit and then, above all, some courage and fitness. Access up here is monitored and is via a fairly steep set of stairs. Therefore, please do not walk up with flip-flops. Those who are afraid of heights should not necessarily walk up there. There's only one way up and down. But those who are at the top enjoy an incredible view of Macchu Pichu. There is also a ranger at the top who is happy to snap a photo of you. The ruins up here are also worth seeing. Rather unreal how you could build up here.

        Typical Inca way to the summit, definitely start early, otherwise many posers...
