Vinicunca Mountain
We will pick you up from your hotel at 4:00 am, then we will travel in the direction south of Cusco until we reach Cusipata (3,310 metres/10,000 feet) which takes 2 hours on a minibus. Once we get there, we will have a delicious continental breakfast. Then, we will continue driving to the starting point (Phula Wasipata) at 4,326 metres (14,189 feet), which takes approximately 1 hour. After that, we will start hiking for 1 hour and 30 minutes until we arrive at the Hill of Colours, also known as the Rainbow Mountain, which is the only one in the world! You will have plenty of time to explore. Once we have finished visiting the most famous colourful mountain, we will have the option to go to Red Valley to take some pictures. It will cost you 20 soles for entry, and then we will return to where we started, which takes 1 hour. Our minibus will be waiting for us to take us to the local restaurant for lunch. Afterward, we will come back to Cusco, arriving at approximately 4:30 pm.
