This place, also known as the Rainbow Mountain, has an altitude of 5,200 metres above sea level. You are picked up from the hotel early in the morning and transferred to Quesoyuni. Visit Japura on the way, a small Andean community and have breakfast there. Hike towards Kairawiri, starting point of the trek to the impressive 7-Colour Mountain. Enjoy the natural spectacle that you have in front as well as the imposing mountains that also fill the landscape with colour. The trek is surrounded by beautiful sceneries of the Andes and guarded by the majestic Ausangate Mountain, one of the most important mountains of Cusco, considered a sacred entity since the times of the Incas. Once you reach the viewpoint of the 7 colour Mountain, appreciate the surroundings from up high. After the visit head down to Kairawiri to have a box lunch.

About Cusco

Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.

The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.

Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
