Toro Toro National Park, National park and fossil site in Charcas Province, Bolivia

The national park spans 165 square kilometers across semi-arid landscapes with deep canyons reaching depths of 300 meters and elevations between 2000-3500 meters.

The region was established by Quechua people and Spanish settlers 250 years ago, leading to the official national park designation on July 26, 1989.

The Llama Chaki archaeological site holds remains of Quechua settlements, preserving indigenous heritage through artifacts and structures within the park boundaries.

Access to the park requires a journey from Cochabamba via unpaved roads, with options including a daily 6 AM bus service or faster minibus transportation.

The park contains over 3,500 dinosaur footprints from the Cretaceous period, including tracks from both bipedal and quadrupedal species dating back 120 million years.
