Day 2
Takesi / La Paz
Overnight None
On the 2nd day, after breakfast, we start descending to Pongo village. We will be able to observe the stunning Quimsa Chata River and have lunch outdoors in the Kakapi. From there, we will see the contrast of Yungas cloud forest, the vegetation drops below until we reach an altitude of 2000m. We start by descending to Takesi River. We will continue to the cloud forest passing by Yanacachi. This town is one of the oldest in Bolivia and was very important in the spaniard era as they produced fruits, vegetables, and Coca leaves. At the end of the trek, our vehicle will be waiting to drive us back to La Paz.
