About La Paz for Solo Travelers
The world's highest capital city crammed into a canyon at 3,600m — solo travelers who acclimatise properly find La Paz one of South America's most unique and exhilarating urban experiences.
Solo Travel Tips· Confident Solo
La Paz is one of the world's most dramatic cities — perched at 3,600m in a canyon with the snow-capped Illimani behind it. Altitude sickness is real; rest for a day before doing anything energetic. The Witches' Market, Cholita wrestling, and the Death Road mountain bike descent are all classic solo experiences. The teleferico (cable car) network is a stunning way to explore neighbourhoods. Stay hydrated.
