The Sacred Valley offers much to see and do, and a few days spent checking out the sights is recommended. Base yourself in one of the little towns, such as Pisac, Urubamba or Ollantaytambo, and explore the surrounding area from there. Pisac, in particular, makes a great kick-off point. The town features the famous and not-to-be missed Pisac Market. Aside from the market, the ruins of the Pisac fortress should be visited. The Sacred Valley also boasts a few interesting museums, such as El Museo Catcco in Ollantaytambo, which provides information about the fascinating local history. But the main reason for visiting this region is the seemingly limitless number of scenic hikes and treks through the Sacred Valley.. Many of the hikes combine walking through beautiful countryside on your way to or via various ruins sites.
