Itinerary

We travel south of Cusco for about 1.5 hours to Cusipata, where we enjoy breakfast and have time for last-minute purchases such as snacks or warm clothing. After breakfast, we continue by vehicle to Phulawasipata (4,600 m), the starting point of the hike. Our guide provides instructions before beginning the 2-hour hike (4 km) through impressive Andean scenery, including glaciers, colorful valleys, llamas, and alpacas. We arrive at Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca – 5,036 m) for a guided explanation and free time to explore and take photos, with views of the majestic Ausangate Mountain. After the visit, we descend back to Phulawasipata, return to Cusipata for lunch, and then head back to Cusco. The tour ends around 5:00 pm at Plaza Regocijo.

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.
