The Best-kept Secret Rainbow Mountain of Vinicunca – Peru

But Peru also has a similar place. Although it is much less known because the Andean country has so many tourist attractions. And the part of the tourism monopoly is taken by a handful of cheap companies that do not protect the trails and the flora and fauna of the region. UNESCO  is already recognizing Cusco city as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. But the truth is that those who visit this city entirely may think differently. Cusco Day Trips has many attractive archeological places such as the  Sacred  Valley and Machu Picchu Inca Trail, Choquequirao Trek, also known as the second Machupicchu, Salkantay Trek, and of course the hidden Rainbow Mountain Cusco of Peru country or native name Vinicunca Peru.

In this plan, almost all travelers overlook the presence of the Ausangate mountain range. This glacier is over 6,372 meters in altitude (the fifth highest peak in the country) located in the Cordillera de Vilcanota, a hundred kilometers from the ancient Inca capital. The Ausangate is frequented by mountaineers. But incomprehensibly, few people know that in its vicinity they have the chromatic show of Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain in Cusco Peru. A succession of elevations has become creditors to the unofficial nickname of Rainbow Mountain Peru.

Its nearby Sacred Valley offers unique ruins and is also near the precious Macchu Picchu. What the overwhelming majority of travelers ignore is that just 170 kilometers southwest of Cusco. The rainbow fell from the sky to merge with the Andes of Peru.

It is surprising that until recently, this geological miracle was practically unknown. The mountain in Peru is painted like a Rainbow. Or also known as Vinicunca in Peru in its indigenous denomination, is in the heart of the longest mountain range on the planet (7,240 km) and perhaps that is why it is also one of its best treasures. All those who have been there already agree that the place has soul, energy, and magic that makes it an amazing attraction.

The Wave Arizona (Picture Google)

In the summer of 2009, Microsoft had a fabulous idea to include a photo of The Arizona wave Picture from Paria Canyon, titled the Sandstone Waves, Lower Antelope Canyon (Arizona, U.S) on the desktop wallpaper of Windows 7.[1]. From that moment on, the Arizona wave has been a relatively well-kept secret Rainbow mountain amongst real hikers, backpackers, Drawers, and photographers who dived to “Arizona Bucket List” and suddenly everybody wanted to go to the Arizona Waves.

Does that include you? Be ready to jump through some hoops, but be ready to experience a place like no other on Earth, and an adventure of a lifetime awaits you!

Important Tip if you are planning to hike the wave in Arizona

There are a few advantages to being a local tourist or U.S Citizen. And one of these is you can run over to Kanab and enter the wave Arizona permit lottery in the dead of wintry weather. And attempt to get one of the 10 daily Wave Arizona permits (the different 10 being accessible online months in advance. This used to be the way to get a greater chance because of the decrease in crowds all through the off-season, but no longer.

If you really want to go and hike the Wave, Arizona. For more information check out https://thewaveaz.com

Recommendation

If you apply as a solo hiker and you draw the last permit you don’t get to decide to bring a friend. If you apply as a group they will let you bring 1 person so you’re not hiking alone. Or you can refuse the permit and maintain your friendships.

During the winter months, the visitor center is not available on the weekends, so they draw permits for Sat, Sun, Mon on Friday. All other days are normal; permits are drawn at 9 am for the next day.

The road to the trailhead can be extremely difficult to drive on if it has recently rained or snowed.

There is little to no reception, and people have died on this hike.

As with all desert hikes in the area, get a really early start during the summer months.

The two closest cities are Kanab, UT, and Page, AZ, but AZ does not follow daylight savings, so check the time difference. Bring exact change in cash! 7$ a person
