Suriplaza Colourful Mountains Hike
Suriplaza Colourful Mountains Hike
Between 7 and 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Putre and set off for Caquena. From there, we'll head to Cosapilla to venture into one of the most beautiful parts of the Chilean Altiplano. The colourful mountains of Suriplaza await!
When we get to the foothills of these peaks, we'll kick off a hiking route that'll be divided into three stages. During our hike, which will take 4 hours and cover a distance of 4 miles (6 kilometres), we'll walk along numerous medium-difficulty trails and admire the reddish, ochre and brown tones of the Suriplaza Mountains.
During the first stage, we'll make our way up to an altitude of 16,732 feet (5,100 metres) above sea level. In the next two stages, we'll climb up to 17,060 and 17,388 feet (5,200 and 5,300 metres). As we reach higher altitudes, we'll gaze out at beautiful views of the polylepis and yareta forests, which are two plant species characteristic of this area.
We'll take a break at the halfway point to have a picnic lunch of sandwiches, dried fruits, chocolate and juices. Once we've finished eating, we'll make our way down the Suriplaza Colourful Mountains to take a closer look at their different hues.
It'll then be time to return to the starting point and take you back to Putre. Our arrival at your hotel will be between 4 and 5 pm. See you next time!
