Serena Winn-Darley reminisces about her magical journey in and around the Colca Valley
Introducing the Captivating Colca
At 3,7270 m deep, the Colca Canyon in southern Peru is one of the deepest canyons in the world. Twice as deep as the famous Grand Canyon, ancient Incan terracing covers the landscape and it is home to one of the world’s largest flying birds, the Andean condor. If that’s not enough of a reason to visit, it also has the highest chain of active volcanoes on the planet.
