I would advise you not to go here We got a taxi out to Tarapaya There isn’t a single sign or any indication of how to get up to it We had to ask a few different people if there was a way to get to it Eventually we found it, after being there for 3 minutes a woman came over and started yelling at us telling us we couldn’t swim in the water but also demanding money from us Me and my friend speak broken Spanish and we said we didn’t know you couldn’t swim and we wouldn’t get in the water, the woman was still quite frantic so we decided to leave and she kept following us looking for money eventually had to give her some to get her to leave us alone Not the day we expected, and no swimming for us Scenery was beautiful though so...

This goes for EUROPEAN, ASIAN and AMERICAN tourists: leave some tip, which is worth half a lunch in your countries, for them it means a...

Bathing in the natural pool and camping are prohibited now because of safety incidents, but there's a warm stream that feeds a large but a little colder pool and is very nice for bathing. There is no entrance fee, but also not much care taken of the place so make sure not to...
