Explore Our Horseback Riding Routes in Cusco and the Sacred Valley
For a half-day countryside adventure: Our Horseback Riding Maras and Moray Tour combines scenic trails, Andean farmland, and the cultural landscapes surrounding Maras and Moray.
For a high-altitude mountain experience: The Rainbow Mountain Horseback Riding Tour offers horseback assistance along part of the route to Vinicunca, reducing the amount of uphill walking required. Some walking is still necessary.
For a longer Sacred Valley adventure: Our Sacred Valley Horseback Riding Tour is designed for travelers who want more time exploring the countryside and landscapes around Maras and Moray.
For peaceful lakeside scenery: The Horseback Riding to Huaypo Lagoon experience takes travelers through rural Andean landscapes toward the beautiful Huaypo Lake area.
For horseback riding combined with Machu Picchu: Our Horseback Riding and Machu Picchu Tour combines a horseback riding experience in the Sacred Valley with a separate visit to Machu Picchu on a two-day itinerary.
For archaeological sites near Cusco: The Horseback Riding Cusco Sacsayhuaman Tour is a convenient option for travelers interested in exploring scenic trails and historic surroundings close to the city.
Half-Day or Full-Day Horseback Riding Tours?
Half day tours are a practical choice for travelers with limited time or those who prefer a shorter riding experience. They offer an opportunity to enjoy Andean scenery without dedicating an entire day to the excursion.
Full day tours provide more time to explore rural landscapes and enjoy longer routes. Our two-day combination tour is an alternative for travelers who also want to include Machu Picchu in their itinerary.
Are Horseback Riding Tours in Cusco Suitable for Beginners?
Some of our horseback riding experiences are suitable for first-time riders. Local guides or horse handlers provide assistance, while riding conditions and physical demands vary depending on the route. High altitude experiences, particularly Rainbow Mountain, require additional consideration because riding a horse does not eliminate the effects of altitude.
Can You Visit Machu Picchu on Horseback?
Our two day combination tour includes horseback riding in the Sacred Valley and a separate visit to Machu Picchu. The archaeological site itself is not accessed on horseback. This option is designed for travelers who want to combine two different experiences during their stay in Cusco.
