[Vilcabamba] D8: Machu Picchu Mountain
This is a stellar AM hike we can do before a proper tour of the Machu Picchu site. Montana Machu Picchu is a steep climb up Inca Trail to the top of a point above the Machu Picchu site, offering views of Salkantay and Pumasillu snow-capped peaks on clear days.
This trail often has much less volume that the Huayna Picchu option.
Machu Pichhu!
After touring around Machu Pichhu we climbed Machu Pichhu mountain. It's only a few km but steep and takes you to over 3000 m with spectacular views of surrounding mountains as well as the Inka city below.
