Have a great experience with our excellent and trained tour guides and receive the best service in small groups (16 guests maximum), with a modern and comfortable van, the best restaurant on the route, and we also included extra equipment like professional trekking poles, oxygen tank, and first aid kid.

This is one of the most famous attractions in Cusco and the 2nd more visited after Machu Picchu. This tour gives you the exciting experience of climbing a mountain over 16,000ft, where you will be able to see colorful landscapes, majestic glaciers, amazing and vibrant green valleys with herds of alpaca, and the impressive Ausangate mountain range. Also, you will experience first-hand how locals live in the mountains and even see them hard at work.

    Our adventure begins very early at 4:30 am with our guide who will pick us up from the hotel and then transport us about 1 hour and 30 minutes from Cusco to Cusipata where a delicious breakfast awaits us. After breakfast we will be transported for about 1 hour to the base camp of the Colored Mountain called Phulawasipata (4600 masl). At this place our guide will give us some recommendations before starting the hike. After 2 hours of hiking, we will be arriving at the majestic Rainbow Mountain (5000 masl), where we will take a break of about 15 minutes while our guide gives us an explanation of the place and then have free time for about 30 minutes to take pictures and enjoy the place. After visiting Rainbow Mountain, we will descend for 1 hour and 30 minutes until we reach the parking lot where our transportation will be waiting for us to return to Cusipata where a delicious lunch awaits us. After lunch, we will return to Cusco for 2 hours arriving around 16:00 hours.
