FAQs

Why is Rainbow Mountain Peru so colorful?

Rainbow Mountain, also known as Vinicunca, is so colorful due to its unique geological composition and the weathering process that has taken place over millions of years. The vibrant colors are a result of different mineral deposits, including iron, sulfur, and copper, that have formed layers in the sedimentary rocks.

Over time, erosion, tectonic plate movements, and other geological processes have exposed these layers, creating the striking multicolored appearance of the mountain. The variation in color is due to the specific minerals present in each layer and their reaction to environmental factors such as water, air, and temperature.

How high is Rainbow Mountain Peru ?

Rainbow Mountain, also known as Vinicunca, is located at an altitude of approximately 5,200 meters (17,060 feet) above sea level in the Cusco region of Peru.

Where is Rainbow Mountain Peru?

Rainbow Mountain, or Vinicunca, is located in the Andes Mountains of the Cusco region in Peru. It is situated about 100 kilometers (62 miles) southeast of Cusco city, near the majestic Ausangate Mountain. The area is part of the Vilcanota mountain range and is known for its unique, colorful geological formations.

Choquequirao trek 4 days

Tuesday, 4 June, 2019 | FAMOUS TREKS | 0 Comentarios

Overview

The Choquequirao trek 4 days and 3 night is a new alternative to visit a fantastic destination, our agency organizes daily departures to this destination.

DAYS: (sacred places to reach).

  • 1: Cusco – Cachora – Santa Rosa.
  • 2: Santa Rosa – Choquequirao.
  • 3: Choquequirao – Chiquiska.
  • 4: Chiquiska – Cachora – Cusco.

Itinerary

DAY 1: CUSCO – CACHORA – SANTA ROSA.

Our first day starts out from the village of Cachora, a 4 hour drive from Cusco. Leaving Cachora the path works it’s way down in to the Apurimac Valley and we will have fantastic views of snow-capped peaks in the distance and the Apurimac Valley spread out before us throughout the day, also after a few hours walking we’ll get to have our first views of Choquequirao sat on the far side of the valley.

The area around Choquequirao is rich in life and we will see a wide variety of flora and fauna as we make our way down in to the valley.

Our campsite for the night is at Santa Rosa (2200m / 7215ft.) which is on the other side of the Apurimac River. As the campsite is a little further along the trail than most groups go it is one of the quietest places to camp on the whole trek so we can enjoy the beautiful scenery around us without
distraction.

DAY 2: SANTA ROSA – CHOQUEQUIRAO.

Today is probably the hardest day of the trek. To get to Choquequirao we need to make our way back up the opposite side of the Apurimac Valley
which involves ascending about 800m / 2624ft. over a distance of 14km / 8.7 miles through hot and humid conditions. It’s quite tough going but the
views we get today mixed with the wide variety of flora and fauna you find on this side of the valley make it worth it.

Throughout the day we will see a wide variety of bromeliads, orchids and stands of bamboo; we’ll also hopefully see birds such as Quetzals, Toucans and a variety of hummingbirds. After about a 5 hour walk we’ll arrive to our campsite close to Choquequirao (3050m / 10,005ft.) and settle in for the night – if the weather is clear the views of the sunsetting from here are amazing and we may be lucky enough to spot Condors soaring over the valley below.

DAY 3: CHOQUEQUIRAO – CHIQUISQA.

Today’s focus is on exploring Choquequirao. Waking up early you’ll head off on a guided tour of the site during which you’ll be shown the most important and interesting sections of the city and get to learn about the Inca culture and the close relation between Choquequirao and Machu Picchu.

Compared to Machu Picchu little is known about Choquequirao even though it has been known about for much longer. Originally discovered in the 17th century by the Spanish it lay abandoned and forgotten until recent years when tourism raised the profile of the city and exploration began. Even with this increased interest only 25% of the city has been explored and many of its secrets still wait to be discovered.

After your tour you’ll begin the trek back to Cachora along the route we came. Our campsite for tonight is Chiquiska (1800m / 5905ft.) in the base of the valley by the Apurimac River.
