Traditions run deep in the Sacred Valley, and even more so in the small town of Maras. From family-owned salt ponds to the fermented corn drink chicha and distinctively crafted hats, this is a place where heritage thrives. For generations, traditional hat-making families have shaped their molds by hand, laying the foundation for the refined quality and signature style that is now highly sought after. Visit these skilled artisans, observe their techniques, and uncover the local history—including the rivalries that have shaped the craft.

But the experience goes far beyond hats. While in the area, take time to explore the enigmatic circular terraces of Moray and the stunning Maras salt ponds, where culture, tradition, and breathtaking landscapes come together in a journey filled with history and mystery.
