When going down from the ruins to Lamay I saw some people hiking up the mountain directly from Lamay. I can't understand the appeal of such a harrowing and boring trek when you can start in Chinchero and walk between pristine valleys to this ruins.
I took a bus to Chinchero, payed 20 soles to a tuk tuk driver to take me to the start of the trek and enjoyed my way alone in the mountains. You go very high so you really need to be used to the altitude.
