What to expect

Amboro National Park
5h · Admission ticket included

Amboró National Park is one of the most important protected areas in Bolivia and South America.

Within its boundaries lie a variety of ecosystems ranging from the Yungas cloud forest to the Andes and the Chaco region.

The Giant Ferns of Amboró are a true natural treasure, reaching heights of up to 13 meters — and growing only 1 centimeter per year.

This cloud forest is one of the few places in the world where these prehistoric, tree-like plants still survive, dating back to the time of the dinosaurs.
