Tourists come in droves to this remote canyon 100 miles northwest of Arequipa for the stunning views of cliff walls that plummet to a depth more than twice that of the Grand Canyon, and for the chance to see the Andean condor soar high above on warm air currents, or thermals. When you're exhausted from all the hiking and condor-watching, dip your feet into one of the hot springs dotted throughout Colca Valley. Then visit the caves of Mollepunko and the mummy of Paraqra for a glimpse into the ancient history of the region.
