According to some geologists from the Geological Society of Peru, the Vinincunca mountain, like many other mountains in the great Cordillera de los Andes was formed by the movement of tectonic plates that raised marine sediments to impressive mountains.
On the other hand, the coloration that Vinincunca presents is the result of the oxidation of some minerals due to the action of erosion, humidity and other geological factors.

At some point in our history, the mountain was covered with blocks of ice: it was a snowy mountain. However, due to the effects of global warming and climate change, the ice disappeared and left in its place this magical landscape that shows us the ecological beauty and fragility of planet Earth.
