Rainbow Mountain Cusco Peru - Ausangate Vinicunca
1 day tour. |
 |
Vinicunca, the Mountain of 7 Colors, or
Rainbow Mountain, is located in the
Southern Region of Cusco. This gratifies even the
most demanding travellers and trekkers, endowing
unforgettable memories of the raw sites of and
around it. Sumptuous panoramas of high mountains,
formidable glaciers, crystalline rivers, calm lakes,
harmonious pastoral scenes of grazing alpaca kept by
Andean natives and the humble families of the
region. This new route is genuinely unique and is a
real adventure through a preserved wild natural
terrain including Puka Punta, "red lead", a mountain
in the Willkanuta mountain range and small
communities of Quechua-speaking descendants. The
route reaches great heights between 4710m and 5200m
for stunning eagle eye views. Explore this route and
it is likely that you will have this extension to
the south all to yourself, encountering few or no
other route hikers. This one-day tour is able to
offer travellers an alternative trail that is
paramount to other trips and destinations.

ITINERARY
Pick up from your hotel around 4:30am - 5:30am and
head south through the town of Urco to the Checacupe
District (2 hours drive) and then follow the path to
Pitumarca where we’ll stop for breakfast. Then we
continue along the road through small villages until
we arrive to the community of Hanchipata - Quesiuno
(1 hour and 20 minutes drive), the ideal starting
point to walk the route. We will see incredible
mountains such as Ausangate, beautiful blue lagoons,
and many other natural sites. The walk to Vinicunca
(Rainbow Mountain) will last approximately 3 hours.
At this peak we will enjoy the view for about an
hour taking photos of the beautiful scenery before
descending the path and returning to the vehicle. We
will go back to Pitumarca to have lunch and then
we’ll be on our way to Cusco
