Trek to Palcoyo Mountain
Before starting the trek, our guides will give some instructions so you can safely walk to the summit of the mountain. The hike will begin at 4,200 m.a.s.l. and reach 4,900 m.a.s.l., so it must be taken calmly and slowly. Along the way, we will explore the stone forests of the region, adorning mountain slopes and hills. In the distance, we will see the colorful Palcoyo mountain range, indicating that we are only a few minutes away.
