2. Already in Pampachiri our guide will give us some tips for our walk of approximately 4 hours of ascent to the mountains in which we will be experiencing changes in climate as we go up to reach the mountain "Vinicunca" or Rainbow mountain. During the journey we can appreciate the flora and fauna typical of the Andes such as vizcachas, eagles, lamas, alpacas, among others, such as the deer and puma that are rarely seen. Also on the way we will enjoy wonderful views as the mountains surrounding the road change color as we move until finally hit the Rainbow Mountain. Once here, if the weather is good, you will enjoy the first views of the Rainbow Mountain. At the summit, you will have the opportunity to rest for a while to catch your breath and admire the spectacular views.

About Cusco

Cusco, de oude Inca-hoofdstad hoog in de Peruaanse Andes, combineert enorme stenen muren met koloniale kerken en is de poort naar Machu Picchu.

De Plaza de Armas is het hart van de stad, omlijst door de kathedraal en de jezuïetenkerk La Compañía. Inca-metselwerk is overal in het centrum bewaard gebleven, het bekendst bij de Qorikancha, de zonnetempel waarop de Spanjaarden een klooster bouwden, en in de steen met twaalf hoeken in de straat Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, de wijk van de ambachtslieden, klimt steil omhoog met werkplaatsen en cafés.
