Sacred Valley of the Incas



This beautiful and inviting valley between Pisaq and Ollantaytambo was esteemed by our ancestors due to the special conditions it has like: beneficial climate, generous fertility of its land, and the presence of the Wilcamayu or Sacred River. In this zone, the Incas found an appropriate place to leave samples of their wide knowledge on hydraulics and their deep love for nature. It is known as the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Drive on paved road or walk, bike, horse ride or raft along the Sacred River Vilcanota.

Staying in Urubamba finds you perfectly placed to visit Ollantaytambo, Pisaq, Chinchero, Moras, Moray, Machu Picchu and much more.

On Sundays, people celebrate the traditional mass in Quechua with the attendance of the Varayocs or native Mayors. Visit the mystical Incan ruins on a 2 or 4 hr walk through this majestic mountain setting. In Moras you can visit the salt mines whilst Moray offers the opportunity to view an Incan Agricultural centre of knowledge. Ollantaytambo is a small town functioning today as it did 500 years ago. Surrounded by Incan ruins it is a must visit village whilst in Peru. It is also the setting off point for your visit to Machu Picchu.

There are two clearly defined seasons: the rainy season, from November to March and dry season from April to October. Hiram Bingham discovered this Inca Citadel on the July 24th, 1911.
