It depends what you're looking for. If you're looking for ruins, then The Inca trail (the classic trail or the Ausangate route) is a good choice. You could also do Choquequirao in 5 days and, following the same trail, reach Machu Picchu in 10 days.
If you're looking for the trekking itself, the views, the technical difficulty, etc. Then you should be looking towards Huaraz. There are many treks around Huaraz. If you want a nice one that is not so tough, try the "Santa Cruz" trek. If you want even more amazing views and are willing to handle a tougher trail, try Huayhuash. I'm doing Choquequirao this year.
Something you should keep in mind is that the time to trek in the Andes is between June and September (the dry season).
Hope this helps.

All great advice. The best I can say is spend a few days taking it easy to get acclimated to the altitude-even the most fit people get really short of breath, and if you don't keep up with your fluid intake you can get horrible headaches and stomach upset.
Have a great time! Peru is beautiful and fascinating.

Make sure you hire a good guide to go to Macchu Pichu. Make sure you are in good physical shape when you go. This is not a leisurely trek. Be prepared to experience altitude sickness, chew the leaves the locals sell. Take plenty of good sunblock and apply it constantly even if you do not burn.
