What to do in The Sacred Valley

Surrounding Cusco, there are miles of wrinkly mountains and rainbow-hued peaks), waterways and Incan ruins. This area is the Sacred Valley and if adventure is on your lips, you'll enjoy exploring by quad bike or bicycle, hiking, ziplining, and even paragliding... You get the picture! They valley is also an open-air museum of sorts, where you can marvel at the ingenuitive agricultural terraces at Pisac, the superbly-preserved temples of Ollantaytambo, and the sprawling Maras salt pools, which are still mined today.
