With 7 days in Sacred Valley, you'll have time to experience the city's highlights. Today, the valley offers a profound immersion into both ancient history and vibrant Andean culture. You can explore the colossal stone terraces of Ollantaytambo's fortress, wander through the labyrinthine ruins of Pisac perched high above the valley, and witness the ingenious agricultural experiments at Moray.
Por Qué Visitar Sacred Valley
Immerse yourself in authentic Andean culture at traditional markets. Bargain for handwoven alpaca textiles and vibrant crafts at the famous Pisac Market. Visit Chinchero on a Sunday to experience a more local market and see master weavers demonstrate ancient techniques.
Witness unique and surreal landscapes shaped by ancient ingenuity. See the concentric circular terraces of Moray, believed to be an Inca agricultural laboratory. Explore the thousands of pre-Columbian salt pans at Maras, which have been harvested since Inca times, creating a stunning mosaic on the hillside.
Enjoy a gentler altitude for acclimatization. At elevations around 2,800m, the valley is significantly lower than Cusco (3,400m), making it the perfect place to adjust to the Andes while exploring, reducing the risk of altitude sickness before heading to higher points.
