Trip Overview
Of course, you have Heard about the magnificent Rainbow Mountain in Peru. Over the past 10 years, the Vinicunca rainbow mountain has become the latest Peruvian phenomenon after Machu Picchu! This colorful gift of mother nature has captured the fascination and hearts of many a traveler to Peru, and even Instagrammers! for its remarkable colorful display in the Vilcanota mountain range of The magnificent Andes mountains. However, did you know that the famous Rainbow Mountain is not the only Rainbow Mountain in Peru? or in the same mountain range? Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain is the colorful quieter sister mountain in the Vilcanota Mountain Range near Ausangate and only receives a fraction of the visitors. Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain is easier to get to and offers spectacular natural landscapes all round. Beyond the stunning panorama of Palcoyo Mountain, you also have the bonus of seeing other natural features of the region!
On a Palcoyo Rainbow mountain tour, you actually get 3 for 1! What a bargain! Palcoyo consists of 3 rainbow-colored mountains, a sweeping red valley, the stone forest of Ccacca Loma with spectacular rock formations, agricultural terraces carved into the mountains, and awe-inspiring views of the sacred Apu Ausanagate Mountain in the distance. You will also exchange the thousands of tourists that visit Rainbow Mountain every day for rural farming communities, llama herders, alpacas, and scenery to knock your socks off! The kaleidoscopic mountains of Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain offer a more relaxed, more remote, more spectacular, more varied, and more stunning scenery, with less travelers, less altitude, less walking distance, and less stress!

- Top elevation: 4,900m / 16,076 ft

Day by day schedule
Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain - Cusco Day Trip
We will begin our Palcoyo Rainbow Mountain Adventure bright and early, at 5:00 am when we collect you from your Cusco Hotel hotel. We Will then head in our private vehicle to the small village of Cusipata where we will enjoy our delicious buffet breakfast. This will set us in good stead for the adventure ahead of us! We will drive for approximately 1 and a half hours to reach the Palcoyo Rainbow Mountains trailhead. Even from the trailhead, we will be blessed by Mother Nature's gifts as we are surrounded by the spectacular, other-worldly landscapes of the Vilcanota mountain range in the Andes of Peru. Before we set off on this relatively short hike, your expert guide will give you a brief explanation of the Palcoyo region and some safety guidelines. We will then set out on this remote and mind-blowing adventure, hiking for about 40 minutes, depending on your pace. After taking some time to take in exactly what we are witnessing, with awe-inspiring views over the Red Valley and the 3 Palcoyo Rainbow Mountains, we will then have the opportunity to visit the beautiful stone forest of Ccacca Loma. After spending some time in this magical landscape and taking photos to capture the stunning beauty of the high-elevation Vilcanota range, we will say goodbye to this remarkable part of the Andes and return along the same Trail, where our driver will be waiting for our return journey to Cusco. We should arrive around 5:00 p.m. full of memories of a unique and special section of The Andes, where very few people visit on their Cusco adventures.
