Challenging but Worth It - The hike was tough due to the high altitude, but the views were incredible! The colors of Rainbow Mountain were unbelievable, and the Red Valley was even more stunning. Make sure to acclimate in Cusco before attempting this. The included lunch was a great way to end the adventure!
