Throughout your journey, you will pass through a vibrant green valley with the snow-capped peak of Ausangate towering in the distance. You will see hundreds of roaming alpaca, and have the chance to understand how Quechua people live genuinely. The company provides box breakfast (Drinks (teas), with a sandwich of avocado and cheese also snacks ) usually we have breakfasts at the beginning of the hike with best views and to avoid the crowds. As you get closer to the Rainbow Mountain, you will begin to see the rust signs of the colored minerals that formed the painted hills.
