Cochabamba and Torotoro Canyon
See the Christ statue in the culinary city, then transfer to the dinosaur footprints, canyons, and cave park
A short holiday route: visit Cochabamba's markets and city viewpoints on the first day, then take the southern highway to the small town of Torotoro to stay for two nights, hike the canyon, enter Uma Jalanta Cave, and see dinosaur footprints and the Ciudad de Itas. Guides are required for the scenic area, and vehicles can be arranged in town. The intensity is moderate. This itinerary does not go east towards Chapare.
During the rainy season, roads and rivers are easily blocked. Ask about road conditions before entering the park.
