The Colca Canyon is one of the most beautiful areas in Peru famed for its colourful and traditional towns and for its wildlife. There are over 100 species of birds including the giant Andean condor.
The Colca Canyon is also one of the deepest canyons in the world. It is, in fact, twice as deep as the Grand Canyon.
Another location I never dreamt I would be able to visit but with heygo virtual guides another place I can cross as having seen, although not the same as actually physically being there it will do for now.
The Colca Canyon 11,975ft & Valley are paradise to nature lovers. The Colca Valley is 186 miles north of Arequipa, and holds one of the world´s deepest gorges, cut by the Colca River, which flows 250 miles from its source at 14,700 feet above sea level. The canyon stretches over 60 miles long and is lined with majestic peaks, many of which are volcanoes.
So many wonderful postcard opportunities. This facility on the heygo,site is what makes these tours so special.
