The ancient Incas created a vast network of roads and trails that they called Capaq Ñan. Today you can still hike on parts of this Incan road system that are paved with the original stones. The most popular of these Inca trails for hiking is the Camino Inca to Machu Picchu, which was the Royal Highway that led pilgrims and officials of the Empire to the Sacred City of the Incas. This ancient Incan trail starts near the town of Ollantaytambo in the Sacred Valley and ends at Machu Picchu. The Lost City of Machu Picchu is without doubt the most recognizable symbol of Inca Civilization. It is located on top of a mountain saddle high above the Urubamba River in the middle of the cloud forest. Over the citadel looms Huayna Picchu ("young mountain" in Quechua), which can be climbed up a steep stone-paved trail.
