Cusco has 3 rainbow mountains. Most travelers only know one!🇵🇪⛰️
Vinicunca is the original — 17,060 ft, the steepest climb, and the one behind every viral photo. Palccoyo sits lower and flatter, trading one dramatic ridge for three colorful hills and a fraction of the crowds. Pallay Punchu is the newest of the three, discovered around 2020, with sharper ridges and more saturated colors than the other two — but it's also the farthest drive from Cusco.
None of them is "better." They're just different trips. 🏔️
