ATV TOUR TO RED VALLEY AND RAINBOW MOUNTAIN ITINERARY - 1 DAY
No early start, no rush, and no long hike! Explore Rainbow Mountain and the Red Valley by ATV, enjoying every landscape and every stop at a more relaxed pace. Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in the Peruvian Andes!
Our experience begins at 6:00 a.m. with pickup at your hotel in Cusco. We will travel about 2 hours to the picturesque village of Cusipata, where we will enjoy a delicious Andean breakfast to recharge before starting our adventure.
Then, we will continue for about 1 hour by vehicle to Pitumarca, the starting point of our exciting ATV route. Before setting off, our team will give us a practical briefing of about 15 minutes to get familiar with driving the vehicles and the safety measures.
It’s time for adventure! We will begin a ride of about 30 minutes by ATV, surrounded by mountains and high Andean landscapes, until we get close to the stunning Seven-Colored Mountain (Vinicunca). From there, just steps from the Rainbow Mountain viewpoint, you can admire its fascinating natural colors and enjoy free time to take photos. With this schedule, we aim to visit the attractions at a different time from the traditional departures and enjoy each stop more calmly, although the number of visitors may vary from day to day.
The adventure continues to the amazing Red Valley, where the mountains seem covered by an immense carpet of reddish tones. We will walk around the area, admire the contrasting colors, and capture unforgettable photos of this extraordinary Andean landscape.
After exploring both attractions, we will ride the ATVs back to the starting point and board our transportation to Cusipata, where we will enjoy a delicious buffet lunch featuring local cuisine.
Finally, we will head back to Cusco, arriving in the afternoon with unforgettable memories of an experience that combines adventure, nature, and unique landscapes, all without having to wake up too early!

Recomendations
Do you dream of seeing Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain without an early start or long hikes? This ATV experience from Cusco is ideal for those looking for a different adventure with more comfort and less physical effort.
No early start: enjoy a later departure than on traditional tours.

Ideal for avoiding long hikes: a great alternative for travelers who want to see Rainbow Mountain without the demanding climb on foot.
Adventure and Andean landscapes: experience the thrill of driving an ATV while discovering one of Cusco’s most impressive natural landscapes.
Important: Vinicunca is located at high altitude. Although this experience greatly reduces the amount of walking, we recommend acclimatizing beforehand. Please note that the walking distance may vary depending on trail conditions.
