Walking amid the hills that surround Inkaterra Hacienda Urubamba is to tread upon one of the most fertile lands in the Americas. The Sacred Valley of the Incas is blessed with some of Peru’s finest archaeological sites, and this hacienda-style hotel immerses guests in Andean culture with an array of in-house excursions: Visit an ecological farm, bird-watch within the hotel grounds, hike along the Challa Huasi Trail, learn about the production of chicha de jora (a traditional drink of the Andes), and take a twilight walk. Handcrafted headboards, Inca masks, and alpaca blankets adorn the 12 guest rooms and 24 stand-alone casitas.
