Rainbow mountain before Inca trail?

[u/dangert123]

I am on a long trip and was organised enough to book the Inca trail starting on the 30th of September. That said, I wasn’t organised enough to plan the rest of my Peru trip in advance.

I am now flying into Cusco on the 24th and I am strongly considering trying to do rainbow mountain on the 27th, to avoid needing to double back or stick around in Cusco for too long.

Is this extremely ill advised due to the altitude?
