4-Day Ausangate Trek with Rainbow Mountain and Machu Picchu

Embark on a 4-day trek from Cusco to Machu Picchu. See the stunning Rainbow Mountain and the Lost City of the Incas, Machu Picchu.
Day 1: Cusco – Tinki – Upis– Hot springs
Start your adventure with a pick-up from your hotel in Cusco at 4:30 AM. Drive for 3 hours to the community of Tinki, arriving around 8:00 AM. After enjoying a delicious breakfast, begin your Ausangate trek with a 4-hour uphill hike to your lunch spot at the base of Ausangate Mountain – the highest peak in the Cusco region at 20,926 feet.

After lunch, continue for 2 more hours downhill to the community of UPIS – located at 14,458 feet. Camp near the medicinal hot springs. Take time to relax and enjoy the warm waters in the cool mountain weather in the evening.

Day 2: Upis – Pucacocha – Ananta
Wake up with a hot cup of coca tea or coffee in your tent and enjoy a delicious breakfast. The hike begins with a gentle climb up to Pucacocha Lake, where you will enjoy lunch on the shores of the beautiful lake.

Along the way, enjoy breathtaking views of the mountains, herds of llamas, alpacas, vicuñas, and local farmers. After lunch, hike for 2 hours to the Alpaca Pass 4989 m (16,567 ft). After enjoying the incredible views of the Ausangate mountain hike, descend for another 1 hour to Ananta camp, where the mountains will surround you.

Day 3: Ananta – Rainbow Mountain – Aguas Calientes
After an early breakfast, the trek begins with a 3-hour ascent to Vinicunca Mountain (16,466ft/5,020m). Along the way, observe llamas and alpacas, traditional houses and the breathtaking scenery of Ausangate Mountain (6398m/20991ft).

The Rainbow Mountain (or Vinicunca) is located in the southern region of Cusco. This spectacular place will impress even the most demanding hikers. The high altitude allows for some of the most incredible views in the region, and here one feels completely detached from modern civilization.

Rainbow Mountain is considered one of the most beautiful day hikes in the world. Start descending again when you reach the top, exploring and enjoying this extraordinary place. After lunch, board the van for a 4-hour drive to Ollantaytambo, where you will take the 7 PM train to Aguas Calientes, where you will spend the night in a hotel.

Day 4: Machu Picchu (Lost City of the Incas)
On the last day, get up very early and get ready to experience Machu Picchu to the fullest. Go straight to the queue and wait for the first buses to Machu Picchu at 5:30 in the morning. As the sky lights up, enjoy incredible views of the city along the way.

On a clear day, watch the spectacular sunrise over Machu Picchu. Your guide will take you on a full 2 to 3-hour tour of the city before dropping you off at Machu Picchu to explore on your own or climb Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu Mountain (tickets should be booked in advance if possible).

Your guide will explain how to take the bus from Machu Picchu back to Aguas Calientes for lunch (not included) and then return to Cusco by train and bus. The EsPeru team will meet you at the train and return you safely to your hotel.
