The Tres Cruces Paucartambo Viewpoint is one of the only two places in the world where you can appreciate the Sunrise in detail. Since the main attraction is the sunrise and its great variety of colors. Therefore, it is possible to contemplate the tones in the sky, the light, and the shape of the sunrise in a very different way from what we are used to.
During this phenomenon, there are two sunrises or, as it is known, a double sunrise. The first is based on a false exit, where you can see the solar glare rising between the horizon full of vegetation for 20 minutes. While, in the second, it shows the Sun in all its splendor, illuminating the dense Manu jungle for approximately 15 minutes.
On the other hand, there is also a wonderful view of the Ausangate mountain range, a snowy peak that adorns the Paucartambo River. The landscape is also made up of the majestic mountain of Apuqañaqway, which the locals call “protector of Antisuyo”.
What is the best time to visit it?
The most recommended is to travel between the months of May and July, due to the mild climate and the absence of rain. Also, the sky is clearer before sunrise.
