Vinicunca is a distinctive, multi-colored mountain in the Andes of Peru. It’s also referred to as Montaña de Siete Colores (the Seven-Color Mountain), or simply Rainbow Mountain. It is not only one of the most popular of Peru’s natural wonders but is also world-famous.
You can only get so close to it via motor vehicle. After that, you either hike or cycle the rest of the way. Still, at a height of 5,200 meters, your view will be worth the effort. The best time to go is during the month of August when it’s nice and dry.
