Rainbow Mountain Tour is a full day hike to one of the sacred mountains of the towering Ausangate. Locally it is also called 'Winicunca or Vinicunca'. The trip is an unforgettable adventure with fantastic views that will take you through beautiful villages of Quechua-speaking people. The hike allows the traveler to discover the best experience while crossing the Peruvian Andes. The mountain is characterized by its red and green stripes, which comes from natural mineral deposits. Other colors that can be seen include turquoise, gold, lavender and a deep red. In addition, once you reach the top, you will be able to have 360 ​​degree panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes and the Red Valley.

    You will need to wake up early to enjoy this natural marvel at its best. Between 3:45 am and 4:15 am, we’ll pick you up directly from your hotel to start our ride to the south of Cusco through beautiful landscapes of valleys and agricultural communities. First we will drive for around 2 hours to to the town of Cusipata (3,329m / 12,772 ft.). After breakfast in Chillihuani we will continue our trip by van, following a beautiful way between the mountains, accompanied by our first views of Ausangate, highest peak of Cusco. Along the way we will pass through herds of hundreds of alpacas and llamas and the occasional shepherd or local people moving about their daily activities. Our ascent will begin in Phuluwasipata and last about 2 hours, bringing us to our final destination and highest point on our Rainbow Mountain trek (or Vinicunca trek), at 5,020 mts / 16,470 ft. Here we will stop to admire and appreciate the outstanding views in all directions and the rare geological formations that appear to be painted with exotic colors by Gods hand. Far below and into the distance are infinite valleys and glaciers as far as one can see. We will stop for about 30 minutes – the perfect amount of time to rest, to have a snack, and immerse yourself in this wild environment before we must begin our descent, roughly an hour and a half hours towards the point where we started the day’s hike in Phuluwasipata, there our transport will be waiting to take us to restaurant in Chillihuani where we enjoy an energizing lunch. We will have time after lunch to visit some of the local households and observe the lifestyle and customs that are still being practiced today since Inca times. Here the native language of Quechua is spoken very well and agriculture is essential for life. At the end of the day our tour will conclude with an opportunity to meet with local people from the community before making our journey back to Cusco in our private van. We will leave you back at your hotel around 4:30 p.m to 5:30 p.m. Meals: Continental Breakfast / snacks / fresh lunch Lowest Altitude: 3,890 m / 14,189 ft Highest Altitude: 5,020 m / 16,466 ft Distance: 3 km / 1 mile.

De las mejores experiencias que tuve durante mi visita a peru, El guía Guido siempre pendiente de todo el grupo, cuidando que todos estuviéramos bien, la verdad subir la montaña de los 7 colores si esta muy pesada si no te preparas . La comida deliciosa

I did the full day Rainbow Mountain your and received Franco as our guide and Percy as the driver. The only negative was being picked up last and having to sit in the back as the roads are rough (at no fault to the guides). The breakfast was enough to get you the energy to make it to the endpoint and our guides were very flexible and accommodating to differing levels of adjustment to the altitude (4500-5000+ meters up!). Everyone was allowed to go at their own pace and Franco and Percy operated under the "no person gets left behind and everyone will see the view, no matter what" mindset and even let some people in our group borrow their personal walking sticks. Franco was extremely knowledgeable in the history of the mountain and the peoples who reside there and had an answer for everything we threw at him! He was also very willing to assist in taking photos for and with everyone which is nice for people who may take the trip solo. The only recommendation I would have for the tour company is providing walking sticks for customers and maybe working a deal with the restaurant, for lunch specifically, to provide a drink with the meal. Otherwise I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this adventure with Franco to La Montaña de los Colores!
