Pallay Punchu Mountain is the new tourist destination of the city of Cusco. Pallay Punchu or also known as Pallay Puncho, Cerro de los Colores with sharp points, Sharp Mountain of Colors or Pallay Poncho del Apu Taqllo Apacheta is a geological formation located 3 hours from the city of Cusco (194 Kilometers by car). With this new discovery destination we would have 3 colored mountains in Cusco: Vinicunca mountain of 7 colors, the rainbow mountain of Palccoyo and the sharp colored mountain of Pallay Punchu. Mountain Pallay Punchu The Pallay Punchu mountain is characterized by its beautiful colors, its sharp points and its easy access to get there. The Sharp Mountain of Colors or Pallay punchu is located in the Layo district approximately 3 hours from the city of Cusco. • The name of Pallay Punchu Apu Tacllo comes from the multiple colors of the mountain that closely resembles the ponchos used in the Peruvian highlands, a garment very typical of Peru. • The climate in the Pallay Punchu mountain is cold and winds in the morning, at noon you can see a drier and sunny climate. • The best season to visit the Pallay Punchu mountain is from March to October where it has a dry climate without rain. In the month of November to February it is advisable to always wear a rain poncho and be warm. • Remember that like all mountains it is very cold and if you have problems with altitude sickness it is advisable to always be a day earlier in Cusco acclimatizing yourself. It is also ideal to drink coca tea or a pill for soroche. • To get to the sharp colored mountain of Pallay Punchu, a 3-4 hour walk is required depending on the physical condition of each person. It

We already have the first security protocols to visit Machu Picchu after Covid-19 or also known as the Coronavirus. The Association of Tourism Agencies of Cusco - AATC together with the regional authorities of Cusco, Machu Picchu and the different unions of the tourism sector, as part of the activities of the Commission to reactivate the tourism sector in the region, carried out a technical visit and inspection to the Llaqta of MachuPicchu (Inca City - Archaeological Zone) to verify the Sanitary and biosafety protocols implemented by the DDC Cusco and SERNANP. Visit Machu Picchu Among the main security protocols it was taken into account that: • The train will only go with 50% of its capacity, that is, the distance between tourists will be respected. It is not yet known whether the authorized train companies, in this case PeruRail and IncaRail, will maintain their costs or raise prices. Now if you do not want to go by train, you also have the cheapest route is known as machu picchu by car or machu picchu by bus, but surely mobility in this case will go alone with 50% of its capacity and prices insurance will increase for this route. • The Consettur Bus will also go with 50% of its capacity. This Bus is to go up from Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu Town) to Machu Picchu (Archaeological Zone) and vice versa. It is also unknown whether this company will maintain its current prices or raise its prices by any percentage. The other route to climb Machu Picchu (Archaeological Zone) from Aguas Calientes was on foot but currently it is not known if it will remain open or if it will be closed. • Tourist Guides may only enter with a maximum group of 7 people and maintain a distance of
