Opting to traverse Rainbow Mountain on horseback is a unique choice designed for those who require the assistance of animals to complete the journey. The high altitude can sometimes pose a problem, in which case, horses can aid you to scale the heights of the Vinicunca Mountain, above 5000 meters.
Upon reaching the starting point, our guide will assist you in choosing a horse and will introduce you to your local guide, who will be leading the horse. Each horse comes with a handler.
Your ride will commence from the starting point and continue until you’re a mere 15 minutes away from the mountain. To prevent erosion, horses are not allowed to tread on the mountain, hence, you will need to cover the remaining 500 meters on foot.
While you explore the Rainbow Mountain, the horses will wait for you. After your exploration, you will mount your horse again, with your local guide alongside you, and head back to the van to reconnect with the others who chose to hike the trail.
