4. Upon arriving at the trailhead (approx. 4,600 m), we begin the trek up to the Rainbow Mountain. The hike usually takes 1.5 hours to reach the summit, following a high-altitude trail through a valley with grazing alpacas and views of Ausangate’s glaciers​. Guide will lead the way, keeping a steady pace and helping you cope with the thin air. As you climb, you’ll notice the colored stripes become visible on the mountainside. Reaching the summit at about 5,020 m (16,466 ft), you’ll have time to celebrate the accomplishment. At the top, enjoy panoramic views of the vibrant, multi-colored mountain and surrounding peaks – a true payoff for the early start and challenging hike. Take your time at the summit for photos and rest. After soaking up the views, you’ll hike back down the same path to the trailhead, which takes roughly 1 hour of descent. If you struggle with the hike, horseback rides can often be arranged on the spot for an extra (from 80 soles p/p can carry you most of the way)

About Puno

Puno is a high-altitude Peruvian city on the shore of Lake Titicaca, the base for the floating reed islands of the Uros, Taquile Island and Sillustani.

Puno stands at about 3,800 metres on the shore of Lake Titicaca, in the Altiplano of southern Peru, with its bay filled with reed beds. The Plaza de Armas is framed by a baroque 18th-century cathedral with a carved stone façade, and viewpoints on the surrounding hills give views over the lake. Puno is called the folklore capital of Peru, for its dances, costumes and music.
