DESCRIPTION

Discover the Rainbow Mountain and Red Valley ATV short route, an experience designed for travelers seeking adventure, impressive landscapes, and quick access without long hikes. First, we start with pickup from your accommodation in Cusco to head towards Cusipata, where you will enjoy an Andean buffet breakfast at the Qempo tourist restaurant, ideal for starting the day with energy.

Afterwards, we continue to the community of Japura, the starting point where you will receive a brief safety instruction before driving your ATV. Next, the ATV route starts through a strategic section surrounded by colorful mountains, high Andean villages, and panoramic views that accompany you all the way.

Then, at the end of the ATV ride, we will begin an approximately 35-minute walk to the impressive Red Valley, a natural setting tinged with intense tones due to the presence of minerals in its mountains. Subsequently, we will advance towards the Rainbow Mountain viewpoint (Vinicunca), where you will have time for photographs, rest, and to contemplate the majesty of the Andean landscape.

Finally, we return via the same route to Japura to take the ATVs again. After the return section, we will enjoy lunch in Cusipata and, to conclude, we will return to Cusco, ending this unforgettable Rainbow Mountain and Red Valley ATV short route at Plaza Regocijo.
