The Vilcabamba range of mountain where the RAINBOW MOUNTAIN AND RED VALLEY are located, it is a huge area to the southeast of Cusco, it is a very important section of the Andes Cordillera,

this is one of the mountain range in Peru that has the highest concentration of snowy peaks, this creates beautiful high Andean landscapes with vast snow-capped mountains and large glaciers, which in their thaws make appear beautiful lagoons, lakes, nice valleys.

Nowadays with the passage of time, many of these summits are completely uncovered of snow, and they show a special natural pigment of the rock that together with some minerals and the special color of the soil of this place creates beautiful mountains,

they are very striking by the colors they show, together with the local people who are mainly breeders of Alpacas and Llamas will make this tour an unforgettable experience, breathe deeply and live the 5036 meters of “Vinicunca” (The rainbow Mountain).

IMPORTANT:
For this hike (Rainbow Mountain) we organize tours every day, for this reason, we recommend the passengers stay at least one whole day in Cusco to Acclimatize, this is a prerequisite to go on this tour because you start to walk over 4600mts (15091 ft) and the summit is over 5036mts (16522 ft)

INCREDIBLE HIKE TO THE RAINBOW MOUNTAIN AND RED VALLEY

We booked the Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley with Inka Time since they are one of the few operators which combine both places in one day visit, and whilst it was a long day it was definitely worth it – the guide and landscape was incredible, and price is very reasonable. We also booked the Sacred Valley & Maras and Moray tour which was a good day out too. Would definitely recommend Inka Time!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION ¿?

1.- I am just one person, can I join some group tour?

Yes, you can, we have departures every day, feel free to decide when to go.

2.- We don’t like to go in a big group, can we arrange a private tour?

Yes you can, our group tours go with 10 or 15 people, but if you want, you can also arrange a private tour, we have different rates for it depending on how many people you are.

3.- I will travel with my family, we have two 65 YO people, do you think, can they make it?

We had people on this tour from 50 to 65 YO, the tour has medium to hard difficulty, all depends on how custom they are to walk, the difficulty is more for the altitude, if you think they are not to fit to do it, we recommend taking a Private tour, that will be a perfect plan to do the tour quite easily and smoothly.

4.- We want to take the tour included the Red Valley, do we have enough time to do it on the same day tour?

Yes, On this tour we will go up to the Rainbow Mountain then we will go back using a different trail, this is around the Red Valley, this is an extra 30 minutes hike, but it is an unforgettable experience.

5.- How about my luggage, can I take all my staff? if I will check out my room at my hotel?

As this tour is only for 1 day, we recommend taking only small backpacks because. The rest of your stuff you can be stored at your accommodation in Cusco, All the Hotels have storage if you book the night for your way back, you can leave your stuff there, another option is that you can take with you, in the car, we have small storage, or also you can leave your stuff in our office.

6.- How about the altitude, Are going to pass by other places higher than Cusco?

Cusco city is located in 3350 masl. (10990 Ft.) the rainbow mountain is located at 5036 masl. (16522 Ft.); we always recommend having at least one day in Cusco to acclimatize; altitude sickness is very different for everyone, sometimes you don’t have any problem.
