Peru's position near to the equator means that it can be visited all year round. The peak tourist season is from June to August, which is the dry season in the highlands, and this is the best time to go if you're interested in hiking. The rainy season runs from November to March, when the major sites like Macchu Picchu are less crowded and many of the major fiestas occur.
On the coast, Peruvians visit the beaches during the sunny months from late December through March. The rest of the year, the coast is clothed in mist although rain is rare. In the eastern rainforests, it naturally rains a lot with the wettest months being December through April.
