The Sacred Valley expedition is a well-known and popular journey in the Cusco region. The route ascends from Cusco to the north, traverses the pampa, and then dramatically plunges into the abundant, breathtaking Urubamba Valley, alternatively known as the Sacred Valley (Valle Sagrado). The prevalent river flowing through this valley was esteemed holy by the Incas and is known as Vilcanota from Pisac. Further downstream, it is typically referred to as the Urubamba. Along the banks of this massive Amazon tributary, the Incas constructed their palaces and religious hubs, including the fortresses of Pisac and Ollantaytambo. The Salineras and Moray are also located here. The region’s historical richness and pivotal significance to Cusco render it a sacred area. It is advisable to set aside several days for a thorough exploration.
