Pumamarca to Ollantaytambo Hike: if you want to see Inca ruins, walk along the Inca Trail, see even more Inca ruins and stroll the Inca cobblestone streets of the town of Ollantaytambo, then this hike is for you.
Popularly known as the Sacred Valley of the Incas, and officially as the Urubamba Valley, this is a peaceful and incomparably beautiful place tucked beneath the slopes of the Urubamba mountain range. It has long been home to charming colonial villages, isolated weaving communities, the Urubamba River, enormous Inca agricultural terraces, ancient Inca temples and many sections of Inca Trail that are perfect to explore on this one-day hike with a private guide.
Not all of these archaeological sites are visited on conventional tours, and they remain little known to many visitors. This one-day hike around Ollantaytambo will show you how ancient Inca structures still stand among the brush, how the Inca roads are still used by local people today, and how the terraces still produce food.
This hike requires no trekking experience. As long as you are determined to do it and bring your positive energy, you will have an amazing day.
