The time you wish to arrive is important to consider about the journey
Rainbow Mountain Perú makes your journey comfortable, safe and easy. It’s
easy to see the mountain on a day thanks to a new road in the area.
Rainbow Mountain Peru is very useful can only be described as “remote.”
If you take the day trip from Cusco, you’ll be on the road for about two
and a half hours before you arrive at the trailhead. That’s a reason to visit
Rainbow Mountain Peru: you’ll see a cool part of Peru!

Peru is one of the most interesting countries in the world for tourists.
There’s something here for everyone, mountain hikes ., it’s unprobable
that you’re going to run into some crowds while you’re traveling in a place
that’s as cool and popular as Peru. there’s nothing wrong with being a
tourist (and it gives you a chance to meet friends ), it’s only disgusting to
want to get away to somewhere a little more beautiful and off the tourist
track.

Rainbow Mountain is completely known to travelers (just search for it on

Instagram). However, it was only “discovered” a few years ago when
global warming caused its snowpack to melt, revealing the brilliant
rainbow-colored layers underneath. Since tours to the site have only been
in operation for a couple years, Rainbow Mountain doesn’t receive
anything like the tourism , Ollantaytambo or Machu picchu . Of course,
this could change as the word spreads about this place Rainbow
Mountain . That’s why the best time to go is now, before the guidebooks
have caught on! Outside of Rainbow Mountain Peru, this area receives
very few outside visitors. The hills and valleys nearby are still used by
local farmers as grazing grounds for their herds of llamas and alpacas.
you’re lucky because you may even see some non-domesticated
creatures such as the kuntur , , llama and the rarely seen vizcacha . Visit
Rainbow Mountain is your best chances to get up close and personal with
some Andean life. The hike to Rainbow Mountain is definitely amazing .
Not only is the path often muddy and slippery (make sure to bring some
decent shoes!), but the hike also reaches an altitude of 5,200 meters
above sea level. That’s nearly 2,000 meters higher than the city of Cusco
where most tours depart from, and it’s likely that this will be one of the
highest altitude excursions you’ll do on your travels in Peru. That means
that this hike will definitely put your body to the test! Everyone who does
the Rainbow Mountain Peru hike should feel a sense of accomplishment
after completing it.

While it’s definitely a fun way to get some exercise and see what your
body is capable of, you also shouldn’t underestimate the effect that the
altitude can have on your body. Stay on the safe side and make sure that
your tour provider carries oxygen tanks on hand before you book your
tickets. Visit the official Rainbow Mountain Peru operators page for more
information about choosing a tour provider. While some unscrupulous
agents in Cusco might try to scam you into buying an overpriced ticket,
the trip to Rainbow Mountain Peru is normally one of the cheapest day
trips that you can do in the area. Tours generally run between $30 and
$60 USD, depending on the provider. That’s quite a bargain compared to
the hundreds of dollars it can cost to do the Inca Trail, for instance. Plus,
the tours usually include breakfast and lunch as well. My favorite provider
was Rainbow Mountain Travels but you can visit the official Rainbow
Mountain Peru operators page for some advice on picking a tour.

7. The View is Incredible at Rainbow Mountain Peru

Well, this one probably goes without saying but wow, look at that view!
Rainbow Mountain Peru is a truly one-of-a-kind sight, something that you
cannot see anywhere else in the world. You have to see it with your own
eyes to believe it’s real. The vivid colors, the backdrop of snowcapped
mountain in the distance, the valleys below with herds of llamas. You
won’t forgive yourself if you make the mistake of missing out on this
unique attraction.

How to take the best pictures : Rainbow Mountain

When you’ve got a plan for the types of photos that will
work best, fi nd a spot near a window to shoot. Sunlight is
going to be your best friend if you want to avoid purchasing
a lighting kit (like this) or investing in a DSLR.  (Even then,
natural light is going to be your best bet.)  If you’re inside,
place whatever you’re photographing near or facing a
window, but not in direct light. And if you’re outside, shoot
photos in the morning or early evening when the sun is less
harsh, wait for a cloud to cover the sun and diff use the
light, or step into a shadow to avoid squinting or overly
bright/contrasted photos.  

If you’re like me and have zero to passable photography

skills, you defi nitely want to learn to use an editing program
to improve your blog + social media images. As you can see
by the photo below, taking two minutes to adjust the
brightness, contrast, and saturation makes a HUGE
diff erence. Because I always take photos on my iPhone, my
go-to editing app is VSCO Cam. Don’t adjust little by little –
move those sliders waaaaay to the right or left to see what
looks best.

Taking great photos for your relatives + social media boils

down to one thing – practice! Make a point to take
fi ve photos every single day no matter if you’re out and
about or home parked on the couch reading. Learning how
to make the ordinary special is something those big
bloggers are VERY good at. And by working on your shooting
+ editing skills, you can totally do it too!
