Cusco

This tour starts early! Since the route to Rainbow Mountain is a bit long, we’ll pick you up directly from your hotel or accommodation between 4:00 and 4:30 AM—this way, we’ll be among the first to arrive and enjoy this magical place before the crowds.

Cusipata

After this, we will drive about 2 hours to the small village of Cusipata, where we will enjoy a group breakfast to recharge before the hike. Afterward, our driver will take us on a scenic 1.5-hour drive to the trailhead, where your guide will provide important instructions and tips for the ascent.

After 1.5 hours of hiking, you’ll reach the summit of Rainbow Mountain, where you will have around 40 minutes to soak in the panoramic views, capture incredible photos, and learn about the history and cultural significance of this colorful wonder.
