What makes Private Maras and Moray Hike with Lunch at Misminay Community a unique experience ?
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.
With the vehicle, you will continue to the community of Misminay from where you will start with a hike towards a viewpoint of the terraces of Moray. Surrounded by an impressive backdrop of snow-covered mountains, Moray served as an open-air agricultural lab for adapting crops to different environmental conditions.
After soaking up the impressive views of Moray, you will head back down to the community of Misminay where the ladies will welcome you. Enjoy a healthy and delicious meal prepared by the ladies of the community as you exchange stories with them. Your eventful day ends with a transfer back to your hotel in Cusco or the Sacred Valley.
