• Ausangate and Rainbow Mountain (5Day)


    The Ausangate Trekking Tour 5 & nbsp; days & nbsp; is an expedition to one of the highest peaks in the Cusco region, the imposing Apu Ausangate & nbsp; (6 385 m). The people who live there live together with their animals such as Llamas and Alpacas, far from the turmoil of the modern world.

    During the Ausangate Circuit, we will pass through ice walls, some glaciers, waterfalls of rivers coming from the thaws, hot springs, Rainbow Mountain and underground waters. The Ausagate Trek Tour also offers incredible landscapes around the snowy mountains, where we can see wild vicuñas, vizcachas, condors, flamingos and Andean geese.
