2-Day Trek to Rainbow Mountain from Cusco with Exclusive Mountain Camps

About this experience

*Small Group Experience* (max 8 trekkers) This 2-day trek will take you and a small-group to Rainbow Mountain Peru, also known as Vinicunca, which is a undiscovered land full of wildly desert landscapes, snow capped glaciated peaks, herds of alpaca, and pristine beauty. Enjoy freshly prepared meals by our chef on the trail, and views that you can't get anywhere else. Our special route will take you front and center of the massive Ausangate glacier with pristine lakes below. This is a must do!

The mountains of Peru will leave you with an unforgettable experience, as you are lead into the Peruvian Andes by your local guide. During this trip you will enjoy an amazing night amongst some of the brightest stars you will ever see and a milky way so colorful it will leave you stunned. Our new route which includes a part of the Ausangate Circuit will truly take you off the beaten track; an adventure that will take your breath away constantly.
