Torotoro NP

Even the arrival by minibus, for hours on gravel and through countless streams, gives you the feeling of a time travel.
Once in the Torotoro NP, one should also have the feeling that here is still a lot as it was millions of years ago. Let's say 150 million years.

The prints of at least six different types of dinosaurs I have seen, just like that, on my tours. (Below an imprint, I think of a Pterodactylos, with a corresponding Plastikdino in it ... Our guide liked it descriptive ... "Imagination" and so.)

But the biggest fun was, I just like it, a cave tour. Our guide found our group so sporty-looking (and maybe he was right), so we took the tighter route. If you creep through a hole crawling on the side for the third time, with one arm ahead, the other behind, otherwise it will not work ... Herrlich! Nothing for claustrophobic. And 194 cm body size does not make it easier in life.
Now, the mental challenge on such a tour is often greater than the physical one, and at the bottom, I had the joy of always hearing the desperate cries of others, which boosted my anticipation ? we had a really casual group and so I could do any Enjoy the second!
Another tour went into the Torotoro Gorge to the Vergel waterfall ... Here, too, harsh and dramatic nature!

Since on arrival already about a dozen bridge construction sites (with active work!) To see, it is probably only a matter of time until the Torotoro-NP is just as obvious destination Bolivia traveler as the Uyuni salt desert. Worth it either way!
