Coroico

Pueblo of Coroico, in the Bolivia state of La Paz. The "adventure capital of Bolivia", it is located on a mountainside a 2.5 hr drive from the capital city of La Paz.
ACCESS ISSUES: Nearly all the canyons in the Coroico area require permission from the locals to descend. The access trails are private use trails, cross private land, and go through private communities. These small communities are very close-knit and frequently close off their roads even to each other. However, it is very easy to be granted permission, you just need to call. El Vagante Canyoning in Coroico has all the contact information for who to call for permission, and it is highly advisable to reach out to them first. Please do not attempt to descend ANY of the canyons without permission. In the late 2010's a couple of professional canyon guides came from Spain and descended a canyon without reaching out to anybody. The locals got on the public radio and denounced their presence in the community, and now the canyon they descended (not listed here on RopeWiki) is permanently closed to access.
Coroico is the town at the end of the 'Death Road' mountain bike ride, and is quickly establishing itself as the adventure sports capital of Bolivia. The first international Bolivia canyon rendezvous was held here in Sep 2019, and there are enough canyons to spend 10 days or more. A recommended place to stay is in one of the hotels along the road above the town, which have fantastic views of miles of valley below.
El Vagante Canyoning, located in Coroico, co-hosted the 2019 rendezvous and participated in opening most of the routes. It is highly recommended to contact them for current conditions and to help with logistics. Edu Gomez Perez from Spain is the main person who opened routes in this area.
If you would like, you can do the 'Death Road' mountain bike ride down to Coroico from La Paz, and have the guide company bring your luggage down to Coroico. They will be driving down there anyway to pick up everyone finishing the ride along with the bikes. From there you would just stay with your luggage, going to your lodging in Coroico and start doing canyons.
