About this experience
Ausangate trek 3 days is a short hike that will take you to the rainbow mountain and the red valley, through impressive landscapes and colorful lakes. If you are looking to see the best part of the rainbow mountain and at the same time get to know the Ausangate mountain this 3 day trek is perfect for you, as you will be the first to arrive at the rainbow mountain around 5:00 PM. You will also enjoy the sunrise without people around you.
The solid ice of Ausangate, the red valleys, the colorful mountains, the turquoise lakes and the impressive peaks of the Ausangate snow-capped mountain make this adventure unique. Due to its lesser known location, the area receives relatively few visitors.
