What to expect

  1. Vinicunca Mountain
    4h · Admission ticket included
    We will pick you up from your Cusco hotel at 5:00 am. Then we will drive to the town of Cusipata, located in the South Valley of Cusco, where we will have breakfast. Then we will drive for around a hour to the starting point of our adventure.

    The trek to Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain is full of amazing landscapes. You will see some highland farms scattered around the place, with numerous herds of llamas and alpacas.

    After hiking for almost 3 hours, we will reach the summit of the Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain. Its colorful appearance contrasts with the surrounding areas. Experts affirm that the colors of Vinicunca come from mineral deposits which were lay up by the nearby glaciers. According to the locals, in the past Vinicunca was under a thick layer of snow, and just in recent years its unusual colors became visible.

    After spending some time, we will go back to Cusipata, where we will have lunch. Finally, we will back at Cusco at around 6:30 pm.
