Altitude Sickness in Cusco. One of the most common problems for many travelers arriving in the city of Cusco is altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is a consequence of the lack of oxygen in the body since the city of Cusco is located at 3399 meters above sea level. This is why many travelers lack oxygen, as the higher you go the lower the atmospheric pressure and the less oxygen there is. How to avoid altitude sickness To avoid altitude sickness it is recommended not to eat fatty foods and drink plenty of fluids. You can also prevent it by taking some pills for altitude sickness (consult your doctor), another option is to drink coca tea which is very good for altitude sickness. Recommendations: • It is recommended that all travelers acclimatize first upon arrival in Cusco. That is, do not take any tours on the day of your arrival in Cusco. • Another recommendation is not to take tours that are at more than 5000 meters above sea level on the second day of travel; That is to say, the rainbow mountain, the Humantay lake, the Palcoyo rainbow mountain, the 7 Ausangate lagoons or the Pallay Punchu sharp mountain. You can take these tours on the last days of your trip. This way, there will be less chance of you getting sick. Cusco
