Madidi NP, La Paz, Rurrenabaque, Pampas and Chalalan

Day 4 - Walk through the pampas and return to Rurrenabaque

Our second day starts with a simple breakfast after which we head off into the pampas for a longer walk. The purpose of the walk is to see the numerous water birds that frequent the edges of the little lagoons and marshes formed in the pampas. After lunch we return back down river, and back to Rurrenabaque, where we arrave in the evening.

Day 5 - Trip from Rurrenabaque to the jungle lodge of Chalalan along rivers Beni and Tuichi

Early in the morning, right after the breakfast we leave Rurrenabaque in a motorized canoe and navigate along the rivers Beni and Tuichi to the Chalalan Ecolodge in the Madidi National Park. The lodge is on the banks of a small lagoon in the middle of the jungle, it might seem fairly basic, but it is functional and fairly comfortable. We are welcomed with a wholesome lunch after which we are given a short presentation about the lodge and the area. This is followed by a short walk to the top of a small hill above the lagoon, after diner, we get out onto the lagoon again, this time to observe the nightlife in the trees along the banks of the lagoon.
