Full Day Vinicunca Peru Tour – Rainbow Mountain Cusco

At 04:30 a.m., we will pick you up from your Cusco hotel. Then, in our private transportation, we will drive you for two hours via Cusco’s South Valley to Cusipata. We’ll have breakfast at a local restaurant while we’re here.

We’ll drive you to the trailhead for another hour after you’ve enjoyed a traditional and delicious breakfast.

Before starting the hike, our guide will give you a safety briefing. If you are not confident in your trekking abilities, you may rent a horse from the local community. Before hiring a horse, make sure you discuss the price.

The walk will next commence with a two-hour moderate uphill ascent. On the walk, the scenery is breathtaking. Views of Andean farmland will be your reward. You may also see Andean camelids such as alpacas and llamas grazing nearby.

Our guide will share some local customs with you once you reach the peak. You’ll also be able to see the massive Ausangate peak up close. It is regarded as a holy peak by the natives. It dominates Cusco’s southern skyline on a clear day.

You can continue trekking if you want to view the lesser-known crimson valley.

We’ll begin our trip back to the trailhead once you’ve had your enough of this out of this world scenery. Here is where our driver will be waiting for us. For lunch, we’ll take you back to Cusipata. After lunch, we’ll drive back to Cusco for a two-hour trip.
