Llama Trek to Rainbow mountain Trip 4D/3N

“Peru by Locals is the only company that offers this trek supported by llamas. Our mission is to help revive their population, as the number of llamas in Peru has declined due to limited use among mountain communities. In Incan times, llamas were essential for transporting goods, while their wool and meat played a smaller role. Today, many mountain families prefer to raise alpacas instead, which has contributed to the reduction of llama populations.”
