Great Views
One of the best places in the City to just relax and enjoy the view. Lots of green spaces for picnic. There’s a playground, dog park and restaurants. Visit the piers as well.
Incredible Experience
The whole experience is incredible and the views make it memorable. The trek is difficult, the viewpoint is at over 15000 feet. You need to get acclimatized to the high altitude. There are horses if you cannot hike which take you with in 200m from the viewpoint.
Beautiful Plaza
Plaza de Armas is the main tourist area in Cusco with couple of churches, lots of restaurants, souvenir shops, street performers and vendors. Many of the restaurants are geared towards tourists. Some of the attractions like 12 angle stone etc. are close-by as well.
Historical Site
Interesting historical site with a wall built by large rocks locked in place. From there you get panoramic views of the town below.
Interesting Stop
Interesting stop in Sacred Valley, Salt has been mined here since pre-incan times. There are about 5000 mining ponds. The salty water flows underground and channeled to the individual ponds.
Getting there is little difficult,once you are there however it’s easy walk to get to the viewpoint.

Okay Trip
Palccoyo is about 3 hrs away from Cusco. Hike is easier compared to Vinicunca but this also is at high altitude (5000m). It is less crowded, go there if you are not going to Vinicunca.
