Mirador de Antahuilque
A roadside viewpoint between Maca and Pinchollo, overlooking vast terraces on the canyon's north bank and the village of Madrigal across the river.
The Antahuilque Viewpoint lies along the south-bank road toward the Cruz del Cóndor, on higher ground above the valley. From here you can see the stretch where the canyon begins to narrow, the terraces around Madrigal on the opposite bank, and the distant Nevado Mismi. Beside the viewpoint are a cliff tomb and local vendors selling alpaca wool products. Day tours usually stop here for 15 to 20 minutes, and self-drivers can capture the most typical panorama of the Colca terraces from this spot.
