A watercolor of colors made mountain. The Mt. Pintor (4,180 masl), located in the central Andes, does not go unnoticed for its great beauty and its characteristic colors that give it its unique name. A contemplative high altitude trekking is what you can enjoy, with extraordinary views of the Andes Mountains. From the summit of Mt. Pintor you can live the exciting experience of having in front of your eyes the great Apu Cerro el Plomo (5,424 masl) holy Inca mountain and other incredible mountains such as Mt. Leonera, Mt. Bismarck, among others.
The Mt. Leonera, whose name honors the great Puma, which inhabited this area many years ago, is undoubtedly an unmissable summit in the Central Andes. The journey that connects us with this mountain is a moving experience from beginning to end. With extraordinary views to a great part of the Central Andes and mainly to the great Apu Mt. El Plomo, this trekking does not stop impacting by the beauty of the place. The base camp site generally used is Cancha de Carreras, a large esplanade and a very good place to camp.
The road to its summit crosses several ridges that challenge our mind and body. Its summit generally exposed to the wind makes us feel all the power of the mountain, while we contemplate in this natural viewpoint to beautiful mountains of the central Andes and the Plomo group such as; The great apu Mt. El Plomo 5,424 masl, Mt. Punta Santiago 5,083 masl, Mt. Parsifal 5,379 masl and Mt. Bismarck 4,650 masl. With these spectacular views we connect with the energy and spirituality of the place.
Mt. El Plomo (5,424 masl), invites us to travel back in time and get into an atmosphere of respect, spirituality and connection with the ancestors of this land and its culture. A mountain of great spiritual level for its connection with the Incas and the discovery of a mummified child on its summit, make this mountain not only a goal to reach a high point or a beautiful summit, but also invites us to understand why the Incas chose the great Mt. El Plomo to perform their ceremony and give as an offering to the 9 year old Inca child.
The road to Mt. El Plomo is surrounded by incredible high altitude landscapes, rivers, mountains and glaciers that still remain all year round. We invite you to visit it with respect and enjoy this great 5000, full of history, culture and spirituality.
