Rainbow Mountain: Vinicunca Trek Full Day

Early, our private transportation will pick you up at your hotel between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m. To head south from Cusco.

The first place we will visit is Cusipata, a town of captivating landscapes and charismatic people, where you will taste a nutritious breakfast buffet prepared with Andean ingredients (the average time from Cusco to this location is 2.5 hours)

On the route you can see impressive scenery such as glaciers and small lakes that surround the path, you can also find local people dressed in traditional costumes while caring for their llamas, alpacas, and sheep.

If you are lucky, you can see some Andean animals such as condors, wild cats, foxes, skunks, huallatas, partridges, deer or vizcachas near the road. Before arriving at Vinicunca (10 minutes away) there is a detour that leads to the viewpoint of the Red Valley, a unique destination covered by a reddish mantle where travelers usually take photographs or videos.

To enter the Red Valley requires an additional payment (S / 10 soles) (is not included in our rate, this is optional)

The Apu Ausangate and Sarinini will welcome us to the popular attraction. The walking time from Fullawasi to Vinicunca mountain is 1 hour and 30 minutes approximately (intermediate difficulty) during the tour our guide will be aware of you.

To appreciate the mountain, we will have to climb for 10 minutes to the so-called Paso Vinicunca where you can view 100% of the mountain. Our guide will explain the process that the mountain took to gain its peculiar tones and the change that its geography suffered (You will have time to explore the place on your own)
