Message from Nicole Carter

Vinicunca, also known as Rainbow Mountain, is a colorful peak in the Andes of Peru standing at 5,036 meters above sea level. Its vibrant hues are caused by a mix of mineralogical elements like red clay, sandstone, and iron-rich rocks. Accessible via a trek from Cusco, this Instagram-worthy spot attracts tourists seeking a unique natural spectacle. Despite facing mining threats, efforts are being made to protect Vinicunca as a cherished destination for travelers looking to add a splash of color to their adventures in Peru.
