On the way to Palcoyo, travelers will appreciate the transition from the landscapes of the Southern Valley of Cusco to the stunning Andean mountains. Along the way you can see extensive farm fields, snow-capped mountains, small local communities and flocks of alpacas and llamas that are part of everyday life in the Andes. It will also be possible to appreciate the traditional architecture of the Andean villages, ancient agricultural terraces and beautiful natural settings that offer excellent opportunities to take pictures and enjoy the tranquility of the Andean landscape.

Upon reaching the Palccoyo Pass, we will start an ascent hike of about 1 hour, accompanied by llamas and alpacas, until reaching 4,900 m a.s.l. (16,400 feet). During the tour, you will enjoy stunning Andean landscapes and spectacular panoramic views of the three peaks of Palccoyo’s Mountain of Colors, as well as the majestic snow-capped Ausangate, the highest mountain in the Cusco region. We will have enough time to take pictures, enjoy the natural environment and appreciate the tranquility of this wonderful place. Afterwards, we will slowly descend to our private transport to head to a local restaurant, where we will enjoy a delicious buffet lunch. After lunch, we will set off on the return journey to Cusco by our private transport (approximately 2 hours journey). We will arrive in Cusco around 5:00 p.m., and finally drop you off at your hotel.
