Join us to discover Pallay Punchu, the stunning, poncho-shaped mountain of colors in the Cusco Andes! After a hike filled with Andean landscapes, you’ll reach a prime viewpoint where its natural bands of color and spectacular panoramic views will treat you to a unique and unforgettable experience.
This adventure takes you completely off the beaten path, allowing you to appreciate geological formations of colossal beauty, walk along the shores of one of the region’s largest lakes, and connect with the unspoiled nature of the Andean mountain range.
Unlike Vinicunca, the Pallay Punchu mountain stands out for its sharp, steep rock formations, whose mineral veins run vertically and diagonally, resembling the patterns of a woven Andean poncho. In addition, it is located on a less crowded trail and offers a breathtaking, unobstructed view of the vast Langui Lagoon.
The hike is classified as moderate in difficulty. The ascent on foot takes approximately 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on the hiker’s pace. The trail is steep in some sections, but since it is a relatively short hike, it is very accessible to people in average physical condition.
We will reach a maximum altitude of 4,850 meters above sea level at the Cóndor Sayana viewpoint. To mitigate the effects of altitude, it is essential that you rest in Cusco for at least 1 to 2 days before taking the tour. Our team is always equipped with first-aid kits and oxygen tanks to provide you with immediate assistance along the route.
Yes, at the start of the bridle path, local residents offer horse rentals to help travelers who are feeling tired make the ascent. This service costs approximately S/ 100 soles (round trip) and is paid directly and separately in cash to a local resident.
