Rainbow Mountain Trek

1 Day from $ USD 25.00

Surprise yourself with a destination like no other: Rainbow Mountain! Vinicunca Mountain offers you a dream-like landscape with the colors of the rainbow all stacked on top of one another for you to see like a multicolor mantle or a reflection of a rainbow on Earth. Vinicunca can be admired all year-round.

The peak of this hike is at approximately 5038 MASL and can be reached after a four-hour walk from the base camp. The radiant sun will accompany you all along the route and so will families of sheep, horses, and camelids like llamas and alpacas.

The imposing mountain landscape is sure to be the protagonist of your photographs.
