We head back to La Paz from the desert, then it's back to solo riding to ordinary Cochabamba and a tranquil little colonial village called Totora before we make it to Sucre, the capital. It's the most welcoming city we find in Bolivia and stay a few days, taking in the market and nearby crafts villages before taking off for a three day hike in the nearby valley with a large group of Europeans and a couple from Perth.
The 38km hike takes in parts of an old Inca trail and through a crater valley, crossing many rivers, across fertile valleys with peaceful stops in small villages for the nights.
