Colca Valley

Four hours away northern from Arequipa, the impressive Colca's Valley offers wonderful landscapes, surrounded by terraces. 3400m deep into the Canyon, the Colca river is snaking, transforming the Canyon into one of the deepest in the World. Numerous villages there have kept their original features, like the lining position of their streets, their churches from the Colonial time and their traditional celebrations. The highlight of the Canyon is obviously the Condor's Cross, a natural view point from which you can observe the Condors, while perceiving in the background the Volcanos Coropuna and Ampato.
