Discover the Serene Beauty of La Florida

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car from the main entrance of Amboró National Park, head towards Buena Vista. From the park entrance, take the road towards Villa Tunari (Route 4). After about 30 km, turn left onto the road towards Buena Vista. Continue straight for approximately 20 km until you reach the town of Buena Vista. Once in Buena Vista, La Florida is located just a few minutes' drive away. You can ask locals for directions to La Florida, as they will be familiar with the area. Ensure your vehicle is equipped for rough terrain, as some roads may be unpaved or in poor condition.

• Public Transportation

  To reach La Florida using public transportation, start by taking a bus or shared taxi from Santa Cruz to Buena Vista. Buses leave from the terminal in Santa Cruz and take about 3 to 4 hours; they usually cost around 30 to 50 BOB (Bolivianos). Once you arrive in Buena Vista, you can either walk to La Florida, which is approximately 5 km away, or take a local taxi. Taxis in Buena Vista are generally affordable, costing around 20 BOB to get to La Florida. Make sure to confirm the taxi fare before your ride.

• Walking

  If you are already in Buena Vista and prefer to walk to La Florida, head west from the main square. Follow the main road out of town, and after about 5 km, you will reach La Florida. The walk may take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring water. The route is relatively straightforward, but be aware of local traffic, including bicycles and motorcycles.
