If there’s one destination in Peru you simply can’t miss, it’s the Sacred Valley. Nestled in the Peruvian Andes, this is where you can immerse yourself in ancient Inca culture, explore impressive archaeological sites, and acclimatise to the altitude before taking on the trek to Machu Picchu. Today, join us as we take a closer look at this fascinating region.

Located 15km north of Cusco and sitting roughly 600 metres lower in altitude, the Sacred Valley is often hailed as one of the most historically significant areas in Peru. Formerly the epicentre of the Inca Empire, this region was favoured by the Incas because of its unique geographical position and rich, fertile lands. Nowadays, it’s home to the incredible citadels of Pisac and Ollantaytambo, as well as traditional Andean villages and astonishing natural wonders.

Whether you’re a history buff, nature lover, adrenaline junkie, or culture vulture, the Sacred Valley offers something for every type of traveller. There are loads to see and do here, but a few activities and attractions you shouldn’t miss include shopping for local handicrafts at the famous market in Pisac, exploring the well-preserved ruins at Ollantaytambo, and visiting a weaving village, where you can learn about centuries-old Inca customs and catch a glimpse of a unique and traditional way of life.

There’s no limit to the kinds of experiences you can enjoy in Peru’s Sacred Valley! If you’re ready to embrace your inner explorer and embark on an unforgettable journey through one of the top destinations in South America, head over to TourRadar to start planning the trip of a lifetime.
