We will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco at 07:00 a.m. to begin an unforgettable journey to Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain. The journey through the South Valley offers beautiful landscapes until you reach the colonial village of Czechocupe, where you will cross an ancient suspension bridge built with traditional techniques. Then we continue along Andean roads until the start of the trail. Your guide will give you directions before starting an easy hike with few climbs. Three colourful mountains are covered in short stretches: 15 minutes to the first, another 15 to the second and 15 more to the third. Afterwards, a 20-minute walk takes us to the Stone Forest, an impressive geological formation. During the tour, you can take photos, enjoy the scenery and learn about the spiritual connection with Apu Ausangate. At the end, we will make a stop in Cusipata for lunch Andean food in a quiet atmosphere. We returned to Cusco around 5:45 p.m.
