What you can expect

Ride through the Sacred Valley on a Peruvian Paso horse and discover the famous Maras salt pans on a scenic Andes adventure.

This guided horseback experience combines breathtaking landscapes, living history, and one of the region’s most iconic sights. You’ll set out on a 4-hour ride along riverside trails, crossing the Vilcanota River by a traditional hanging bridge and following paths through native forest.

Along the way, pass through beautiful Andean scenery and see one of the largest Inka cemeteries in the area. Continue by the village of Yanahuara before crossing another suspended bridge at Tarabamba and climbing a narrow mountain trail towards Salinas de Maras.

Once at the salt pans, enjoy a walking tour of this remarkable complex, where thousands of salt pools have been used since pre-Inka times. Learn more about the cultural and historical importance of the site while taking in unforgettable views of the valley and surrounding mountains.

Your journey is made even more special by riding a Peruvian Paso horse, a breed celebrated for its smooth gait, elegance, and comfort. Accompanied by expert guides, this experience is ideal for travellers looking to explore the Andes in a unique and memorable way..
