Though they may not make the list of big-hitter Incan sites in Peru, the ruins at Moray and pre-Inca salt mines of Salineras are no less fascinating than their more famous counterparts. Discover these off-the-beaten track ruins on this day tour from Cusco, which also includes a visit to the quiet colonial town of Maras. A guided tour makes it easy to explore less-frequented locales and includes informative commentary and round-trip transportation from Cusco.

Itinerario

We will be leaving from our office to Maras. Maras is home to over 3600 Salt Wells. Strategically dug into the mountainside, thousands of shallow pools filled with salt water eventually evaporate and leave behind the crystallised salt, a process that has been practiced for more than 500 years. It’s believed that the salt pans were originally constructed by the Wari civilisation, which predates the Inca. However, the Inca saw the economic opportunity in harvesting the salt of Maras and expanded the salt pans further up the mountainside. We will then be visiting the iconic, Moray agricultural terraces. Moray is 4.5 miles from the town of Maras and 39 miles from Cusco. The main feature that impresses travellers is its system of circular agricultural terraces, which are up to 330 feet deep. They are build using retaining walls connected by an irrigation system. Moray can be considered a crop lab– they used the terraces to create micro-climates and grow various products.

About Cusco

Cusco, antigua capital inca en los Andes peruanos, combina imponentes muros de piedra e iglesias coloniales y es la puerta de Machu Picchu.

La Plaza de Armas es el corazón de la ciudad, enmarcada por la catedral y la iglesia jesuita de La Compañía. La cantería inca sobrevive por todo el centro, sobre todo en el Qorikancha, el templo del sol sobre el que los españoles construyeron un convento, y en la piedra de los doce ángulos de la calle Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, el barrio de los artesanos, sube con fuerte pendiente entre talleres y cafés.
