Description

Peruvian novelist and writer, Mario Vargas Llosa, dubbed the Cañón del Colca, the "valley of marvels". This deep canyon, twice as deep as the Grand Canyon and encased between abrupt snow-capped sierras and whose slopes are laid out in a multitude of farmed terraces, has lost none of its primeval beauty. As you admire its breath-taking landscapes, observe the flight of the mythical condor before embarking on your own adventure packed trek!
