Colca Canyon is a grand canyon of the Colca River in Southern Peru. It is located about 160 km (100 miles) northwest of Arequipa. Along the way, you will see herds of Vicuñas (a wild relative of Llamas and Alpacas) as well as various types of birds like the giant hummingbird, eagles, geese, and the mighty Andean Condor.
If you like adventure tours, the Colca Canyon also offers excellent treks to its bottom, descending through towering mountains, exploring oasis-like valleys, and visiting thermal springs, with camping.
