The Colca Canyon in Arequipa is one of the deepest in the world and a popular hiking destination. It is located in the south of Peru, next to the Colca River, famous among lovers of rafting. In this valley lives the enormous Andean condor, which can be seen from various viewpoints, such as Cruz del Cóndor. It is an area with green landscapes and several remote traditional villages as Pinchollo, Maca and Yanque where Inca terrace farming is practiced and the local people dressed in typical clothes welcome you. See the Chachani famous mountain towards Cañahuas Pampas. We stop for coca leaf tea at the Aguada Blanca National Park, the habitat of the beautiful South American cameloidaes, as the vicuñas, alpacas, waris and llamas.
