About this trip

This trek is one of the best along the Andes of Cusco is very different from the traditional treks, here you will not get to see Inca sites, if you will not have in front of majestic snow-capped mountains, this is a reserve preserved by the communities, all communities are committed to the care and preservation of this important national reserve, The ausangate mountain range, often threatened by formal and informal mining, throughout all these years they have fought for the conservation and preservation of both their communities and the environment that surrounds them, if you are looking for adventure and scenic beauty, this hike is made for you. The beauty of ausangate will surprise you and you will be enchanted, along the way you will see crystal clear lagoons of enormous sizes, alpacas, llamas, condors, the mountains of ausangate offer a biodiversity of both animal and plant and this makes ausangate special and wonderful.

This tour will have as destination the 7 color mountain with an elevation of 5000mts of altitude, without a doubt is one of the best routes that I can recommend.
