Bolivia's Che Guevara Trail
7 Days / 6 Nights




   

Wounded, with the weapon disabled by a shot and without loader in his gun, the now legendary Argentinian born revolutionary Ernesto 'Che' Guevara was captured by Bolivian security forces in the scrub forest of the eastern Andes mountains. A few days later he was fatally shot in a tiny, out of the way village nestled in some arid foothills, the high control decides to shoot him immediately in La Higuera.

On October 9 "El Che" is murdered. Who ever murdered him in a little school of the town of La Higuera failed believing that, with his physical elimination, the example and the ideology of the El Che will disappear.
