Description
Rainbow Mountain Trek in Cusco at Vinicunca Mountians is one of the popular day trips. This is a journey through the less trodden land with snow capped peaks and wild desert landscapes.
Your tour starts with an early morning pickup between 4:00 AM and 4:30 AM from meeting point. Following a three-hour drive through the South Valley to the Quesinouno community, you'll stop for a protein-rich breakfast. After a briefing from your guide, including high altitude hiking tips and an introduction to the local community, you'll begin your hike to the summit of the Rainbow Mountains of Vinicunca, Cusco. En route, enjoy sightings of llamas, alpacas, the snow-capped Ausangate Mountain, and adobe houses.
Reaching the summit at 5,020 meters (16,466 feet), you'll have time to explore the serenity of the multi-colored mountain and possibly hike further to the Red Valley. The duration of your summit stay varies, usually around an hour, depending on the hiking pace. The descent back to the starting point takes about two hours.
Afterward, the tour heads to the Hanchipacha community for lunch, followed by the return journey to Cusco.
