Ollantaytambo Heritage Trail

The Ollantaytambo Heritage Trail is a collection of about a dozen sites of importance throughout town. If you're visiting on a day trip, most guided tour groups from Cusco, as well as city walking tours booked in Ollantaytambo, stroll through the small town, pointing out various stops along the trail, including Manay Raqay, the CATCCO Museum and the Temple of Santiago Apóstol. If you're self-guiding, blue plaques mark some of the sites, but the most complete list of trails stops, as well as a map, can be found just inside the entrance to the fortress on the wall outside the INC (Instituto Nacional de Cultura) office building. It's a giant mural map of the town and surrounding area, marked with the Rutas Ancestrales, the Heritage Trail and main parts of the fortress.

Location:
Ollantaytambo, Peru

City Walk

Travel Tips: Blue plaques mark some of the sites, but for a complete trail list, go to the entrance to the fortress on the wall outside the INC (Instituto Nacional de Cultura) office building.
