This a wonderful cultural and historical (mostly) unpaved route in Bolivia’s Andean valleys and Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara’s final revolution-rousing days. From Santa Cruz to the city of Samaipata, following en route to Vallegrande are the beautiful small village of Pucará, and Quebrada del Churo, Che’s last residence. Next is Higuera, where Che was eventually captured, close to final stop of Vallegrande – a sweet old town where can be found the hospital’s laundry room, which served as display for Che’s body for the press and public. Other attractions in Vallegrande include the traditional colonial architecture, the Che museum and the Che memorial – on the recently discovered burial ground before his 1997 Cuban burial.
