Visits
- 2026-04-26: We arrived in Coroico around lunch time. After getting some snacks, we set off with the taxi to the hotel just outside town. We tried to follow the mapping app, but the roads were not there. Finally, we found a very bad road heading up a short, but steep, hill to the property. The driver decided that this road was perfectly fine for his sedan, and after a few tries and a lot of scraping on the undercarriage, we made it to the hotel. It turns out, there was another easier road to the hotel. We walked around the trails and the mirador, and that night, i was able to bring in a few moths to our cabin.
