Red Valley (Valle Rojo) is a hidden gem near Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca), offering one of the most surreal landscapes in the Peruvian Andes. Its intense red hills, caused by iron-rich soil, create a Martian-like scenery unlike anywhere else on Earth. After visiting Rainbow Mountain, many trekkers choose to extend the hike into Red Valley, where fewer tourists go—making it a peaceful and authentic experience surrounded by dramatic colors, snow-capped peaks, and wide-open Andean views.
