Rainbow Mountain + Red Valley Full Day

Rainbow Mountain + Red Valley Full Day Tour.-  is a popular excursion in the Cusco region of Peru. The tour typically starts early in the morning and lasts for around 10 hours, including transportation to and from your hotel.

The Rainbow Mountain, also known as Vinicunca, is a beautiful natural formation that features a striking combination of colors, including vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow, green, and blue. The mountain is located in the Andes, at an altitude of over 5,000 meters above sea level. The trek to the top of the Rainbow Mountain takes around 2-3 hours and can be challenging due to the altitude and steep terrain.

After visiting the Rainbow Mountain, the tour typically continues on to the Red Valley, which is another beautiful natural formation in the region. The Red Valley is known for its stunning red rock formations and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The hike through the Red Valley takes around 1 hour and is less challenging than the trek to the Rainbow Mountain.
