This off-the-beatten-path circuit takes us from Coroico, the “Pearl of the Yungas” to Rurrenabaque, at the heart of the Bolivian Amazon.
During the first day, we penetrate in the forest with our 4WD vehicle, to eventually reach Guanay, the village of the gold diggers. We then embark for 3 exceptional days on our pirogue: the descent of río Beni, traversing from one end to the other Madidi and Pilón Lajas parks, sanctuary of a nature still untouched.

We leave early. Taking a dirt road following the Coroico River, in the direction of the North of Bolivia. The track enters a beautiful canyon that takes us to Caranavi, the coffee capital of Bolivia, where we have lunch. In the afternoon, we continue along the Coroico River, soon met by the Zongo River, to arrive at the end of the day in Guanay, village still living the gold rush (7-hour trip).
Lunch on the road (included). All included. Night at the Alojamiento Los Pinos (basic comfort).

Embark on our motorized pirogue for our three-day crossing of the old growth forest. We follow the course of one of the biggest Amazonian rivers of Bolivia, which curves between the last « serranías », small mountain ranges that don’t exceed a few hundred meters in height, last trace of the Cordillera of the Andes.
Each day we enjoy a short hike into the forest, to swim in one of the innumerable crystal clear waterfalls that mark our way and meet some indigenous communities. We, also, get a chance to discover the abundant flora and the exuberant fauna of the Amazon: Capybaras, monkeys, birds in the thousand… a real communion with nature.
Everything included. Bivouac (if it rains, possibility of shelter under thatched roofs).

The river, at this point, receives the waters of Río La Paz, after its tour of the Illmani mountain range, before dropping into the Amazon Basin. On the right bank, we find the Biospheric Preserve of Pilón Lajas, while on the left bank is located the High Madidi National Park. We are in the heart of a still virgin and preserved nature; It is one of the most precious jewels on our planet.
All included. Bivouac (in case it rains, we spend the night under a thatched roof).

We keep on descending the river. We pass the canyon of Beo (last gorge and last “serranía” of our trip) before entering Madidi National Park and Rurrenabaque at the end of the day. We are now on the immense plain stretching all the way into Brazil.
Lunch included. Dinner open. Hotel ***.
