PALCOYO – RAINBOW MOUNTAIN

We will begin our adventure towards this incredible landscape mountain range by picking you up from your hotel in Cusco between 06:50 to 07:10 am to head on board our shared tourist mobility towards the southern part of Cusco.

After a 2-hour trip through picturesque villages we will arrive in Checacupe where we will make a short stop to appreciate a small Inca bridge and the colonial bridge built next to it.

We will continue our tour to the place called “parking” from where you can already see the mountains of colors of which we will have a better view ascending for about 45 minutes, which is a less demanding walk than Vinicunca, the other Rainbow Mountain Peru.

From the Palcoyo viewpoint we can appreciate the 3 mountains of 7 colors, which have colors that resemble the rainbow for its multicolored layers. In addition, we can appreciate a curious forest of stones which is composed of rocky peaks formed naturally by rain and wind.

After enjoying the scenic beauty of this place, we will return to the parking lot to enjoy a delicious lunch in the town of Cusipata and then finally return to the city of Cusco where we will be arriving at approximately 18:00 hrs.
