Mancora

I flew into Tumbes near the border with Ecuador in north-eastern Peru. It's really quiet up here, but the sun's shining and I'm making the most of my few days left before coming home.

Huayna Picchu

I climbed to the top of Huayna Picchu - which is the mountain that overlooks Machu Picchu in all the photos you see - to the Sun Stone and to see if I could make out the condor shape of Machu Picchu.

Quite a hairy climb. Steep as f*ck and slippery all the way. The closer you get to the top, the more it becomes like climbing a ladder.

Machu Picchu

Yes, it was worth the climb.

Ollantaytambo

Huge and really impressive with another temple of the sun at the summit.

There's a god's face carved into the mountain opposite. You can't really make it out at this resolution, but I'll show this one when I get back.

Urumbamba

Pisac

Stopping-off point on the trail.

Puca Pucara

Check-out the view of the Andes.
