Rainbow Mountain Hike

11 hours and 30 minutes

Challenging

Pass herds of llamas and alpacas on the climb to this rainbow-colored peak. Don’t worry. No actual rock climbing involved. It’s beginner-friendly but walk away with serious bragging rights. Don’t forget your camera.

Highlights:

  • Get the money-shot of this multi-colored peak from the viewpoint at Vinicunca
  • Hike past herds of grazing llamas and alpacas
  • It’s not all about rainbow mountain–you’ll be spoiled with views of snow-capped Ausangate, too
