Rainbow mountain – Vinicunca
A different and unique destination high in the eastern Andes that you cannot miss, a mountain where the rainbow touches the earth.
In the surroundings of Apu Ausangate is Vinicunca, a mountainous formation that, thanks to the existence of different minerals on the surface, presents a color pattern similar to that of a rainbow and that has been baptized as the “mountain of colors.” The place is reached after a bus trip of approximately three hours and a walk of one and a half hours, traveling a path that ascends to 5,200 m a.s.l.
