This colorful mountain in Peru once was hidden by snow – now one of the most popular mountains

Smitted under the snowstorm until a few years ago, this colorful mountain in Peru is now one of the most popular and phagenaic mountains in the world. It is known as Rainbow Mountain, its natural lashes of red, gold, turquoise, and purple looks about is Engineer.

I have been lucky enough to travel on the rainbow mountain often over the years. (You may have seen my first posts about the Rainbow Mountain Way back in 2017.)

Things have changed slightly since there; It is no secret! Everyone knows Rainbow Mountain. And opened a new trail for a walk of a walk that I have the courage that is easier than those who have used 8 years ago.

At the renewed Rainbow Mountain Post Officer in 2025, you will find a lowdown ready to prepare the highest reaker, to wear and cook, and what you can expect of this trail. I will share the internal advice to make sure your experience is smoother and fun as possible.

First of the top, a small domain in the rainbow mountain

Rainbow Mountain, also known as VinCuncuna, has not been a tour site until 2015. This is because, until then, snow was covered. When that ice melts due to climate change, reveals beautiful colors.

The mountain was originally established in the weather, various ecological factors, and dirt layers and minerals. These minerals make the mountain look like painted colored with gold, purple, red, and turquoise, all covered in parts reaching the sky.

When I first visited back in 2017, there were few of the tourists that made the trip to the Rainbow parts. Now, hundreds visit every day.

How can you prepare your movement in the Rainbow Mountain

While going hike itself is not really difficult, it is the smallest motion for a lot of walking and it takes only 3-4 hours max. Height is what will be very challenging to people, no matter how beautiful your make-up. Rainbow Mountain is 5,200 m or 17,060 You will feel very breathable in this movement, whatever you are.

The Best You Can Do To Prepare Is Walking Or Doing Form of Light Carry, and If You Are You Also Walkpack

And then, you always contact your doctor before you leave this move.

Preparing Top Earth – Troubling to Cusco

Before you look at the Rainbow Mount, it is important to give your own body time to suit top decay. Cusco lives in 3,400 meters (11,550 meters) above sea level and is the first first point to have an Acculipated. Plan to arrive at Cusco at least 2 days before your trip in Rainbow Mountain. This will allow your body time to comply with reduced oxygen levels.

During your Ecusco:

2. Remain consistently converted by drinking a lot of water

3. Choose the light, the glaciers easily rich in carbs

4. Get enough rest and sleep to help your body recover

5. Avoid Alcohol and Smoking

The local people will also tell you that you drink Doctor Tea Helps to Help, and this works for other people. However, I was no longer lucky to take Coca’s tea and I still have a sickly illness to Rainbow Mount.

However, in the last time I walk, I talked to my doctor, and they gave me a medicine to be high sick. This was a great advancement for me! I have never shown a place in suggesting this! Of course, there are any bad accidents with these drugs, so make sure you discuss this with your doctor before leaving.

What should you pack and wear a Mount of Rainbow

The most important thing to remember is in this pedestrian, and it is actually wearing Peru typically … layers, layers, layers! You will go with a lot of temperature changes throughout your journey. You will be delivering for a moment and sweat as the next crazy.

Here’s what I recommend dressing and bringing:

• Bring Package of the day You are using free. This is to keep your food simple, sunscreen, water, and additional layers inside. When you go like a couple, only one person needs to carry the package. Just make sure there is a lot of water in both of you.

• Cash. This is done for your login fee, and if you want to buy any simple foods or take pictures in Alpaca, those pictures are free!

• Toilet paper! Othuthouse will not have this, so make sure you throw a scroll in your bag.

• A small bag to put any trash.

• And if you’re a very sweating person like me, with a clean shirt and socks to switch to drive drive home can be a divine. We are very commendable to process to bring that.

Now, what should you wear on the Rainbow Mountain Hike

• Bother The unanswered jacket, just in case. You will also want to wear something to prevent the air on your way, taking pictures. It is always airplane and chilly!

• If you are easily cold, I said to it Wear Sweatshirt or Sweatship over your shirt. (This is a good opportunity to get out of the new Alpaca Sweather!)

• Scarf or cord Gaiter – This would be good to help keep warm and keeping dirt and dust on your face.

• Free travel shoes or mountain boots – I have used both of this journey. If you have your pedestrian boots – good! Wear them. Besides, if this is the only thing you do in Peru, you will be well dressed in good sneakers.

• I would say to me You don’t need walking poles. I became with the Inca route, but they did not feel unnecessary to bring the ship.

Rainbow Mountain Trek – Understandably

First, I am very commending the booking to go to the Rainbow Mount from Cusco. You can do this directly in Ecusco on any tourism agency; A few are a few of the farms in the farm de arms.

Most of these visits are less than 30 USD, which is appropriate to hire a car or try to take the bus and hire the taxi. This visit will include breakfast and lunch. Your guide will also manage the oxygen tank when a person finds higher illness, which is good monitoring. Simply bookmark, they are very worthy in this regard.

Now, I love to have everything booked before I continue the trip; Reduce my concern, so I’ve always booked my transport or my journey early. This, however, is more expensive than waiting until you reach Cusco booking, just Fyi.

RAINBOW MOUNTAIN The description of the road

The Rainbow Mountain of Adventure will begin with the early morning, usually about 3 or 4 in the morning. The journey begins with 3-hours drive from a custoco to the track. Once you arrive, you will have to pay less than 30 Soles in the local community that keeps track.

The journey itself is 4 km (or 2,5 miles) usually takes 3-4 hours to complete. He will start at a higher place in 4,326 meters and climb up to 5,200 meters to breathe more than sea level.

The route also contains most of the wide range of stones with some stairs as you approach the idea. The last extension is higher than gravelels and rocky stones, but it is usually not a slope when dry.

The first part of pedestrians is flat or slightly rising, while the last class is very difficult. This last part takes 20 minutes to complete. Don’t be afraid to take a break! I took an Inca route without a problem, but took at least 3 breaks during those 20 minutes of a pedestrian mountain.

If you find a very difficult journey, you can rent a horse about 100 soles take you with modest parts. However, you will need to complete the last increase. It is also important, in my opinion, to ensure that you ride the riding horse already cared for and not working. Most of the time, the horses I saw recently was in a better position than I had remembered.

The best months to visit Rainbow Mountain

Time can be all to do the best of your Rainbow Mountain experience. The best time to visit during the drought, which runs from April to November. You will have a better chance to enjoy the blue sky and amazing view. The weather is dry and we do good and safe conditions for mountains. Also, the sunshine actually improves the famous giant of the mountain.

With the best sense, consider visiting during the shoulders of April in late April, May, September, October, or early November. At these months, you will enjoy the dry weather and sweet temperatures, and additional bonus of small crowds.

It is good to avoid visits in January, especially by the end of January, as this is when the rainy season is at the point. Strong rains can lead to muddy routes, poor appearance, even road closure due to land hijacking.

I visited myself in September and November and I have the perfect weather in September, but there were very few people in the end of November! It was a little rain and cloudy during that time. However, that meant, even a cloudy day, rainbow Mountain is amazing!

Seeing the Irainbow Mountain is a perfect thing to be when you visit Peru. It was one of the best places I’ve ever done, and I visited again in a heart beat.

And Rainbow Mountain is just one of the most amazing experiences you can have in Peru. If you are planning a trip, I also set a list of details of the Peru Peru to help you know exactly what to bring (and what you can skip). And if you think of taking the biggest adventure, make sure that my Inca Trail guide is one of the most beneficial ways I have ever done.
