Peru part II - The Inca Trail

Kan ligga något i det...
Kan ligga något i att vi är "bloddopade". När jag joggade idag, efter 6 veckors uppehåll i träningen, var det benmusklerna som gav upp först inte hjärta och lungor. Kan det stämma med effekten av att vi varit på hög höjd en längre tid i kombination med att inte löptränat på länge?

The Inca trail were many trains
The original Inca Trail was not one trail but a vast network of trails. It's like the road network of any country really. Most of these trails have either disappeared, been abandoned or have been turned into modern day roads. A few of the old roads in the Inca Trail road system have been restored to their original state, mostly for hiking purposes not so much for transport. The trail we took is the most popular one and is the one that most people refer to when they mention The Inca Trail. It is an old trail laid out as part of the Inca Trail System. When it was rediscovered it was cleared from debris and restored to its former state. So it is a real Inca Trail in the sense that it was used as a pilgrimage trail to reach Maccu Picchu. But it was not the only one. There were other trails leading to Maccu Picchu as well. Ake
