Itinerary and highlights

You will be picked up from your hotel between 4:00 a.m. and 4:30 a.m. to take a journey of approximately 2 hours to the town of Cusipata, where you will enjoy a delicious breakfast before proceeding with the route.

We will continue our route until we reach Checacupe, where we will make our first stop to visit the colonial bridge and the Inca bridge, located at 3450 meters above sea level.

After the explanation of our guide and having time to take pictures, we will resume the trip to continue with the itinerary.

After about 1 hour of travel we will arrive at the Red Valley, where our four-wheelers await us. Here, our guide will easily and practically teach you how to drive these vehicles for a few minutes, and then start the adventure by quad bike through incredible scenery.

We will travel guided at all times, making brief stops to appreciate the view: snowy mountains, local villagers in typical costumes, as well as llamas and alpacas along the way. The four-wheel drive to the Red Valley viewpoint and back takes approximately 2 hours.

Then we will take a walk of approximately 30 minutes, during which we will appreciate the incredible colors of the Andean landscape. This section of the road is special because, on many occasions, we will be one of the few groups on this route, which allows you to enjoy the environment with greater peace of mind.

The Red Valley offers spectacular views of the Andes, on a course of about 1 km that takes us to the point of visit of the impressive Mountain of 7 Colors, located more than 5,000 meters above sea level. When we reach the top (5036 m above sea level), we will have free time to take pictures and videos before starting the return along the same path to the point where our transport awaits us, which will take us to enjoy a well-deserved and delicious lunch.

Finally, we will board our vehicle back to Cusco, with estimated arrival time between 4:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., concluding the tour at their respective hotels.
