One for the Backpack

Yossi Brain's Trekking in Bolivia is an excellent book from a superb mountain guide who obviously knows Bolivia and her mountains well. If you're planning on hiking in this magnificent country, then Brain's book is the one for you!

Offers many alternatives to the standard gringo trade routes

We were looking for off the beaten path backpack trips. In Brain's book we found the standard 'Inca Trail' routes that everyone writes about in addition to trips where we would saw no other tourist for several days. There are about 3 times as many routes described in Brain's book compared to the Brandt Guide. Also we found the Brain book more up to date. The only disappointment was that some of the descriptions were just plain incorrect. I got a feeling that this book was rushed to press.
