San Cristóbal Viewpoint
NatureVisit: ~45 min
Viewpoint on the northern hillside above Cusco's historic centre, next to the church of San Cristóbal. From there you see the red-tiled roofs and the Plaza de Armas with the Cathedral, and in the background the mountains that surround the valley. You get there by climbing slopes from the city, so it is best to take it easy because of the altitude.
