In the morning we will have a delicious breakfast accompanied by a beautiful sunrise, on top of imposing rocks and mountains. Then we will start walking for 1.5 hours on an uneven path. This section of the trail is one of the most picturesque, since the blue and turquoise lagoons surround the lower part of the massif of Mount Ausangate (6,384 m.), the highest mountain in Cusco. Then we will continue to the next pass (5,000 m.), where we will enjoy the colorful hills and the glacier peaks. From this pass, we will walk downhill to reach the Ananta part of the valley (4,650 m.), where we will have lunch. Then we will continue walking uphill for 2 hours to reach the next pass called Warmisaya (5,000 m.). From this place, we will be able to see the Rainbow Mountain at a greater distance and the views are still very impressive. The last section is downhill for 30 minutes to get to the second camp located in Qomer Qocha (4,680 m.).
