This adventure is one of the best ways to reach the Rainbow Mountain on horseback, as it makes the ascent easier and allows you to reach the Vinicunca viewpoint at 5,000 meters above sea level without much physical effort. From there, you will enjoy magical views of the mineral-colored stripes, the glaciated mountains, and the red valleys. Along the route, you can see many llamas and alpacas, as well as people from the living Andean culture, some of whom still live in stone houses with straw roofs. Many of them continue to speak Quechua, the language of the Inca era, and they preserve their traditions in their traditional clothing, vibrant colors, and wedding customs. This place is truly magical and one of the most visited destinations by both national and international tourists. The highlight of this experience is riding on horseback for an easier arrival at the viewpoint, where you will be rewarded with breathtaking views of the Andes Mountains of Peru.
