The Paraguayan Chaco, also called the green hell, was still unknown fifty years ago. It is a mysterious, intriguing and wild place, and has nowadays attracted many visitors because of its abundant and exotic flora and fauna, its millions of palmtrees. The temperature in the Chaco varied, and though some claimed that in the Chaco it never rains, the Nino Phenomenon proved the contrary. We advise a visit to the Chaco to our adventure loving travelers only.

Day 1

In the morning we start our journey to the AMAZING PARAGUAYAN CHACO. Along the road we see an enormous variety of native FLORA and the life of the FAUNA will amaze us. Indian villages are part of the environment of the highway as well as the PAI PUCÚ school, built of palmtrees. Impressed by the extension of this part of the Paraguayan Chaco, approximately at noon we will arrive at the LOS PIONEROS HOTEL, 415 Kms away from Asuncion. There we will check in for the next two nights. If necessary other hotels in Filadelfia are available. After refreshing a bit, we visit BOQUERON* (base during the war against Bolivia) and if time allows, YALVE SANGA* (indian village). At night we do a special tour through the forest.
