Horseback riding to Salineras, Maras and Moray Extended

 

This interesting horse ride consists of three important tourist attractions: the Salineras salt mines, Maras and Moray, which we discover by using paths that connect us to the history of these lands from times long before the Incas.

Leaving our ranch located in the rural community of Pichingoto, we will get to the salt mines known as Salineras, where you can see how the salt is collected by hand, and after the visit we will continue riding to the colonial village of Maras, where one of the first churches in Latin America was constructed, which goes by the name of San Francisco de Asís. After taking a moment to enjoy our fruit snack and a drink, we will go for a walk through the streets of the village of Maras where you can see the coats of arms from different Spanish colonial families carved into the stone doorways, and afterwards we will ride towards Moray, an important agricultural experimentation and development centre of which we can appreciate its grand architecture and some of the native products that are still being produced there.

After our visit to Moray, we will have our box lunch or picnic, and we will back down the mountains to our ranch where we will have spectacular views of the Vilcanota river in the middle of a wonderful sunset… an experience full of unforgettable landscapes.
