We will travel through a path full of grasslands, impressive reddish lands, accompanied by the typical fauna of the area: alpacas, llamas, if we are lucky, we will see kestrels, the peregrine falcon or the famous condor flying in the air. When you arrive at Pallay Punchu del Apu Taqllo, which translated from Quechua means “woven poncho”, you can climb the edges and feel like you are flying over the surface of another planet.
  • This mountain stands out for its lines, perfectly sculpted by nature over millions of years. You will be able to distinguish different colors such as red, brown, yellow, green, magenta, ocher, among others. While you enjoy the wonderful pigmentation of tones, you can also lean over the edge to better contemplate the impressive view of the Langui lagoon and part of the Andes mountain range.

  2. Physical condition: Prepare yourself physically with previous hikes on steep terrain, since the trail to Pallay Poncho is demanding and requires endurance.
  3. Layered clothing: The climate in the mountains is variable, so it is advisable to wear breathable, warm and wind-resistant clothing, as well as a waterproof jacket.
  4. Appropriate footwear: Wear trekking boots with good grip and that you have already worn before, to avoid blisters and discomfort during the walk.
