The Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain Full Day Trek starts with a 4:00 am meet point pickup. After assembling the group, the journey heads southeast of Cusco, driving for 2 hours to Cusipata town, where a substantial breakfast is provided. Post-breakfast, the trip continues for another hour by car, passing through high Andean valleys and local communities, to reach Pullawasipta, the trek's starting point at 4600 meters above sea level.
The hike to Rainbow Mountain takes about 1.5 hours, during which trekkers encounter lamas, alpacas, and local Quechua people in colorful attire. Upon reaching the summit of Vinincunca Rainbow Mountain (5200m / 16,200 ft.), there's time for photography and information sharing by the tour guide. Participants also get free time to enjoy the mountain's beauty, have a snack, or relax.
After experiencing Rainbow Mountain, the return walk leads to the parking area and then back to Cusipata for a delicious lunch, then return to Cusco.
