Dare to leave the ‘Imperial City of Cusco’ in search of Pallay<\/strong> Poncho<\/strong> (4791 m above sea level), the colourful mountain that has become the latest tourist attraction<\/strong> for every adventurer. Don\u2019t wait any longer \u2013 come join us! We depart from Cusco, and to get there, you’ll need to tackle a steep, challenging path, but one that\u2019s also captivating thanks to its breathtaking scenery<\/strong>. This tour will take you to a destination few know, but many would love to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n

Unlike Vinicunca<\/a> and Palcoyo<\/a>, the slopes and summits of Pallay Poncho<\/strong> have the shape of a ‘colourful poncho’ \u2014 plus, it has a unique morphology: it\u2019s jagged. Another feature that sets it apart is its proximity to the Languilayo glacial lagoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our one-day tour to Pallay Poncho, also known as C\u00f3ndor<\/strong> Sayana<\/strong> (‘the place where the condor rests’) and Apu T\u2019akllo Apacheta<\/strong>, is perfect for travellers looking to explore alternative routes <\/strong>and leave their mark on the Andean trails. If you\u2019re one of them, we look forward to welcoming you on our next departure<\/p>\n\n\n
