Hiking
Unfortunately it was pretty rainy and you didn't see too much. The climb was still worth it. Upstairs were a maximum of 20 people from all continents. Was funny.

Hiking
Machu Picchu Mountain is about 3082 m above sea level, while Huayna Picchu (2693 m) is almost 400 m lower.
Since both mountains are quite high and the respective hikes require a lot of physical activity, it is very important that you acclimatize properly so that you do not get altitude sickness. Some of the symptoms are shortness of breath, nausea or minor headaches.
