Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain Tour

At 0400 AM, we will be picking you up from your hotel in Cusco. Then in our private transport, we will embark on a three hours drive. We will be driving you through the South Valley of Cusco to Hanchipaca Community. Here we will be stopping for breakfast, before continuing our drive further to Quesinouno community. This is the base camp of the Rainbow Mountain. Our guide will then brief you about the route and the amount of time you will be spending in each stops along the way up to the summit. You will then start the hike through gentle upward slope trailing behind our guide. It normally takes three hours to reach the summit. On the way up you will walk through the gravel road with herds of Alpacas and Llamas grazing on the sides at a distance you would see the snow-capped peaks of Ausangate Mountain towering and many red coloured mountains. Once at the summit, you will have time to walk around the area and pose for some pictures. You would normally spend 30 minutes to one hour at the summit (depending on your trekking speed and weather conditions). You will then start our trek downhill, back to the point from where you started, it would approximately take two hours to get back. You would stop at Hanchipacha community for lunch before starting your journey back to Cusco. We will be dropping you at Regocijo Square, a block away from Plaza De Armas (main square).
