The Inca Trail has been famous all over the world for many years. The reasons are many: The fantastic nature with valleys, snowcapped mountains and great variety of plants, birds and animals. The amazing trail itself, with its stairs and tunnels, which is part of a network of 30.000 km. of trails, going from Mendoza in Argentina to the border between Ecuador and Colombia. Finally, of course, for the archaeological sites along the trail that reveals the great knowledge and organizational skills of the Incas, with the impressive Machu Picchu as a more than worthy final.
