1Salinas de Maras
Go off the beaten path and visit the traditional city of Maras where you will start your walk to the salt terraces of Maras (approx. 1 hour). Along the way marvel at the snow-capped Andean mountains and witness Cusco’s genuine countryside life. During the Inca times, the salt (which has curative properties by the way!) was extracted from the Maras mines and the same method to do so is still used today.
