The Ausangate Trek 5 Days is the full Ausangate circuit from Cusco: five days camping all the way around a 6,384 m snow peak, with Rainbow Mountain (5,036 m) all yours at sunrise, before the day tours arrive. On night one you can soak in the Upis hot springs, close to camp. On night three you fall asleep beside the Ausangate lagoon (about 4,630 m), right under its glacier. Then you cross two passes above 5,000 m, topping out at Palomani (about 5,200 m), and walk down past the 7 Lakes. About 60 km, with horses carrying up to 7 kg of your gear.
