Pick you up from the hotel at 5:00 am and travel 3 hours to the trailhead. Upon arrival, our chef will prepare a delicious breakfast with plentiful choices while you enjoy the scenery with a nice cup of coffee or coca tea.
After breakfast, we'll climb Vinicunca for 2 hours (Also known as Rainbow Mountain). You can witness hundreds of llamas and alpacas and hike around the Ausangate Mountain range, Cusco's highest mountains.
The hike is mostly plain with a gradual steep incline at the end, and you'll need a warm jacket, caps, gloves, and a camera to record the great vistas.
At Rainbow Mountain, your guide will describe how the painted hills, Andes, and this mountain formed.
After admiring the Peruvian Andes and the 360-degree view from Vinicunca, we'll take a 30-minute hike to Red Valley, a rarely-visited region with amazing views.
Next, we'll return to the trailhead, where lunch awaits. Our chef uses local ingredients to prepare buffet meals. Return to Cusco around 5:30 pm.
