It\u2019s an excellent trekking country offering the traveler everything you could want: spectacular mountain scenery, snow-capped peaks, hot springs, turquoise lakes, glaciers, herds of llamas and alpacas, and enjoy seeing the Rainbow Mountain with natural mineral formations, villages, and traditionally dressed Indians.

It is essential to be properly acclimatized for this hike spending at least three days in Cusco (or equivalent altitude) before starting. If you are concerned with the altitude or have never trekked at a high altitude before please consult your doctor for proper advice to prevent altitude sickness<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Usually, the Ausangate trek is undertaken in 5 days, using a combination of trekking and horse riding. Well acclimatized trekkers could complete the trek in 4 days if they want, including all transport to renting Horses to ride and from Cusco. The best months for doing the trek are April to November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overview The Cordillera Vilcanota is an impressive range of mountains which include the massive Snow Mountain Ausangate (6,385m) and three others over 6000m.
