DAY TRIP TO THE RAINBOW MOUNTAIN, PERU by AB EXPEDITIONS
NOTE: If you would like to take a day trip to the Rainbow Mountain or a multi-day trek on the Ausangate visit for more information or email info@abexpeditions.com to book a tour. You are now able to get to this amazing place on a day trip from Cusco, Peru. Have fun!
One of the most magnificent geologic features in the world is the Rainbow Mountain of the Peruvian Andes. The mountain is striped with colors ranging from turquoise to lavender to maroon and gold.
The reason we see the rainbow coloration in the stratigraphic layers of the Rainbow mountain is largely due to weathering and mineralogy. Red coloration of sedimentary layers often indicates iron oxide rust as a trace mineral. Similar to how a nail will rust and turn red when oxidized, sediments that are iron rich will change when exposed to oxygen and water. This, in combination with uplift and tectonically driven crustal shortening has tilted the sedimentary layers on their side exposing stripped stratigraphic intervals.
The different coloration is due to different environmental conditions and mineralogy when the sediment was originally deposited and subsequently diagenetically altered. The introduction of goethite or oxidized limonite will introduce a brownish coloration to sandstones. The bright yellow coloration could be due to iron sulphide as trace minerals within the pore cement. In addition, chlorite will often color sediments varying shades of green dependent on diagenetic history and concentration.

Peru - Zugfahrt mit dem Andean Explorer von Cusco nach Puno
Die Zugfahrt mit dem Andean Explorer von Cusco nach Puno am Titicaca See oder in die Gegenrichtung ist eine der schönsten Zugfahrten der Welt. Die Wagons sind im Stil der 20er Jahre gemacht und bieten einen für diese Höhenlagen unwirklichen Luxus. 10 Stunden benötigt der Zug für die 390 Kilometer lange Strecke.
Startpunkt ist Cusco auf 3.300 Metern Höhe und zuerst geht die Fahrt entlang des Flusses Hutanay.
Nach 210 Kilometern erreicht der Zug den höchsten Punkt der Reise. Auf 4.320 Metern Höhe macht der Zug in La Raya eine kurze Pause. Benommen von der Höhe kann man dort Souvenirs kaufen.
Bei Kilometer 281 erreicht man die staubige Stadt Juliaca mit seinen 150 Tsd. Einwohnern. Die Bahnstrecke führt mitten durch die lebendige Marktstraße im Zentrum der Stadt. Hinter dem Zug schließt sich der Markt wieder und von den Bahnschienen ist nichts mehr zu sehen.
Am Ende ist das Ziel erreicht. Die Stadt Puno am Titicaca See auf 3.850 Metern Höhe.

Andean Explorer Train Full Journey from Puno to Cusco
The Fifth day of my South America Trip.
This spectacular rail journey begins in the beautiful city of Puno, on the shores of Lake Titicaca and travels North to historic Cuzco (Cusco)
On the journey, the train makes a gentle climb to higher, and cooler, altitudes. The first half of the journey is dominated by the magnificent Andean mountains which towers over the deep valleys of the meandering Huatanay River. It then reaches the gentler, rolling Andean Plains, where vicuña and alpaca can be seen. If travelling aboard the Andean Explorer, the glass-walled observation car provides the perfect opportunity to view the beautiful scenery.
The journey is broken by a scenic stop at La Raya, which is also the highest point on the route.
Train journey between Cuzco (Cusco) and Lake Titicaca (or vice versa), three-course lunch. In additional to the complimentary lunch a Breakfast Menu, along with various snacks and a continuous Restaurant and Bar service is available at an additional cost.
JOURNEY
Juliaca is the first stop on this journey through Andean highland culture after departing Puno (3,855 meters), an expanding, low-roofed university town spread around an austere cathedral, which, since its foundation in 1668, has strengthened its tenuous grip on the shores of Lake Titicaca by gradually scaling the surrounding hills.
281 Km from Cusco - the train reaches Juliaca, a commercial railway-junction town of around 150,000 inhabitants, whose rampant buying and selling seems at times to virtually spill onto the tracks and force the train to pick its way through their stalls.
186 Km from Cusco - at Marangani, where an English-style manor house built in the last century is still home to the descendents of the wool barons who established the regions only textile factory there more than one hundred years ago, Cuzco's fertile hills give way to the high plain known as the Altiplano.
The train continues to climb for another 27 Km, past the thermal baths at Aguas Calientes to La Raya, 210 Km from Puno. At 4,321 meters above sea level this is the highest point on the journey, a cold, remote place whose surrounding snow-draped peaks are often shrouded by mist or fine rain, and whose eerie silence is at least partly attributable to eardrums blocked by the dizzying altitude. Crossing this great watershed, the train travels across a sea of seemingly-endless coarse grassland through villages lost to time for all but the Coca Cola company and local breweries.
120 Km from Cusco - at Raqchi, just before the San Pedro railway station, the remains of the great temple of Viracocha, the creator god, can just be seen to the left of the train. Raqchi has been described by John Hemming as probably the largest roofed building ever built by the Incas. Seventeen km beyond San Pedro, the train stops at Sicuani, a bustling island of commerce amid a barren landscape. Aymara women ferry their goods around this important market town on nimbly-chauffeured taxi-tricycles, or sit impassively before their wares awaiting a buyer.
80 Km from Cusco - the two villages of Cusipata and Checacupe (at 99 km) hide unexpected treasures of both pre-Columbian and colonial origin, from fine Inca and pre-Inca remains, to yet another ornately-decorated 17th century church.
59 Km from Cusco - at Urcos lies the lake which gives the village its name. Urcos is both a popular spot for weekenders from Cuzco (Cusco) and as local legend suggests, the repository of Inca gold hidden there forever by local chieftains, anxious to prevent the Spanish from melting down their sacred objects.
45 Km from Cusco - the church at Andahuaylillas is one of the jewels in Cuzco's colonial crown and boasts a magnificent series of murals and superb colonial-era paintings, all on diverse religious themes.
40 Km from Cusco - at Rumicolca, we are close to the great stone gateway of the same name which, for the Incas, silently guarded the southern approach to Cuzco (Cusco). For the much earlier Wari culture it served as an aqueduct, channeling water from the picturesque Laguna de Lucre to their walled city at Pikillacta.
32 Km from Cusco - before reaching Lake Muina, the train turns to the left, crossing the valley road, to join the Vilcanota River at Huambutio as it plunges sharply into its gorge before widening into the great Urubamba canyon.
25 Km from Cusco - the train passes through Oropesa, an early-rising community whose forty-seven bakeries have provided Cuzco (Cusco) with its daily bread for generations.

Travel Peru with KILLA EXPEDITIONS- INTERVIEW With Founder Jose Montes
Is Peru on your bucket list? Have you ever wanted to do some crazy backpacking and trekking in the Andes Mountains? In this video I interview the founder of one of my favorite companies, Killa Expeditions, an expedition company based in Cusco, Peru. It's easy to see why Killa is such an incredible company- from supporting local people, to leaving no trace while trekking, flexible in accommodating crazy requests, and much much more.
Of South America, I have only traveled to Peru. However, I have been there 3 times, with plans to return this winter. I'm not one that normally travels with tour or expedition companies, mainly because the 'norm' is cramming 45 people on a tour bus with head phone pieces and having to follow around a person with a flag. That is the WORST way to travel. Killa Expeditions is the exact opposite, Killa is one of the most kind hearted companies I have traveled with. When spending 3 weeks in Peru this recent March, Bri and I did quite a bit of trekking and tours with Killa.
Jose knew we wanted all of the spots to ourselves and with great lighting, so most mornings we started at 3-4am, one morning we even had a 1am wake up call! On top of that while trekking with the local guides, our group was only ever 2-5 people, and all of the guides I noticed picked up any trash they saw on the trails. If you're looking to go to Peru or questioning what company to travel with, I highly recommend Killa, and I hope this video gives some insight for your travels!
Hope you enjoy! Subscribe for more!
