Colibri Camping

Take a big breath of fresh mountain air and settle in at Colibri Camping, a family-friendly camping and glamping site less than five minutes’ drive from the village of Jupapina (and half an hour from La Paz).

The site’s on a mountainside above the Valley of the Flowers, meaning nothing less than spectacular views are to be expected here – stretch out in a hammock, pull up a bench, or take refuge from the Bolivian sun in the shaded mirador and soak up that stunning vista towards Devil’s Tooth mountain and the Valley of the Moon.

Don’t just look either… make sure to get out and explore this stunning part of the country. Go for a self-guided trek through the valleys, take to horseback or a mountain bike saddle, get a taste of local culture and (more importantly?) cuisine in Jupapina or opt for a quad biking excursion through the mountains.

Prefer to stick closer to base? Opt for a few days on site, for there are options aplenty here too. Sign up for a three-hour massage to soothe tired muscles, bag a new read from the book exchange, challenge one of the other guests to chess, draughts or Monopoly, take a cookery class from a local, or slide along to the bar for Bolivian beers, wine and cheese. Hungry? Put those new skills to use in the fully equipped on-site kitchen.
