Overview

Discover one of Peru’s most breathtaking landscapes: the Mountain of Colors, also known as Vinicunca or “Rainbow Mountain.” This amazing destination, located more than 5,000 meters above sea level, captivates travelers from around the world with its vibrant natural hues, the result of the mineral composition of the earth. During this experience, you will enjoy a unique hike surrounded by majestic snow-capped mountains, llamas and alpacas grazing freely, and an intense blue sky that contrasts perfectly with the mountain’s natural rainbow. Our tour combines adventure, nature, and culture, offering you the opportunity to connect with the energy of the Andes and the hospitality of its communities. Each step on this journey will bring you closer to one of the most iconic views in Peru, a place that is not only seen but felt. The Mountain of Colors is much more than a postcard: it is an experience that will remain etched in your memory forever.
