Full Day Excursion To Palcoyo
DISCRIPTION:
Like the 7-coloured mountain Vinicunca, the Palccoyo Rainbow Range has such striking colours because of the minerals found here, such as red clay, sandstone or copper oxide. This tour is different from the colourful mountain, it will only take you 1 hour to walk. This is your best option and not only because it is not a long walk but also because you will see more than 3 coloured mountains.
Another advantage of this attraction is that it is not overcrowded and has the added benefit of having a view of the Andes Mountains and the snow-capped Ausangate, as well as a forest of stones formed by the effect of nature.
