This alternative hike is less straining than the classic Rainbow mountain. It takes 1.5 hrs. total to complete the circuit. And we visit 3 Rainbow mountains + an enigmatic Rock forest.
The classic Rainbow Mountain is currently the second most visited attraction in Cuzco, thousands of tourist will be spotted every day, therefore landscape and environment are heavily impacted.
