Activities in The Sacred Valley

Patabamba Community Tourism Association
The Patabamba community tourism association offers a fascinating participative demonstration of the weaving process, all the way from picking the plants to making dyes, to shearing sheep and setting up a loom – with explanations of the meanings of colors and patterns. Campsites and homestays are available with advance notice. To get here, you can hire a taxi from Cuzco for about S30 each way.

Sota Adventure
Sota Adventure is highly recommended, particularly for horseback riding. The family-run business also offers mountain biking, multi-day hikes and river rafting; however, this area is not recommended for rafting.
