Colca Canyon

The stupendous scenery of the Colca Valley refuses to be pigeonholed, ranging from fierce volcanic peaks to terraced farmlands, absurdly deep canyons and austere steppes. Huge Andean condors soar overhead, gracefully hovering on rising thermals, and wild lama graze on the plains. Thought to be the deepest in the world, the eponymous Colca Canyon is a worthy climax to a journey through the valley.
