The salt mines of Maras known by some as ´´salt mines´´ are made up of about 3000 small wells with an average area of about 5 m², built on one side of the slope of the ´´Qaqawiñay´´ mountain, which during During the dry season, they are filled or "irrigated" every 3 days with salty water that emanates from a natural spring located in the upper part of the wells so that when the water evaporates, the salt contained in it gradually solidifies.

10 km from the town of Maras (30 minutes by car) Towards the northwest of the town of Maras are the famous salt mines, which can be reached on foot along the bridle path or by car on the dirt road that is almost impassable in the rainy season.

This process will continue for about a month until a considerable volume of solid salt is obtained, about 10 cm. high from the ground, which is subsequently beaten and thus grainy; the salt will then be bagged in plastic bags and sent to the markets of the region; today that salt is being iodized so its consumption is not harmful.
