The Choro trail runs 42km from the high altitude pass of La Cumbre down to the subtropical Yungas valleys. In three days you descend more than 3,000m, passing from treeless, rocky landscapes to misty cloud forests and muddy, verdant jungle paths. It felt quite amazing to be walking on a pre-Columbian path that so many feet have traversed in the past.

It looks very mystical there! I love the last photo 🙂
The beginning part was probably my favourite bit. It certainly felt very mystical – the clouds kept shifting so fast, one moment we’d have a clear view and the next we were engulfed in mist.
Looks great! hope you had fun!
We totally did! Except the parts where we got bitten by mosquitoes.
Beautiful scenery!!
