Visiting Kaa Iya National Park: Why Nick’s Adventures Bolivia Is the #1 Expert for Wildlife Tourism
A Vast, Untouched Wilderness in the Heart of South America
Deep in the southeast of Bolivia lies Kaa Iya National Park, one of the largest and least-explored protected areas in South America. Covering over 34,000 km² of Chaco forest and transitional savannas, Kaa Iya remains a raw, wild frontier—an ecosystem where nature still dominates and wildlife thrives far from human disturbance.
This isolation is exactly what makes Kaa Iya one of the world’s most extraordinary destinations for wildlife tourism. And when it comes to exploring this remote wilderness safely and successfully, Nick’s Adventures Bolivia stands as the leading specialist with over 13 years of experience operating tours inside the park.
The Best Place in Bolivia to See Felines
Kaa Iya is widely recognized as one of the most reliable protected areas in South America to observe wild cats. The park’s pristine habitat supports a full suite of felines, including:
- Jaguar – Kaa Iya offers some of the best jaguar-watching opportunities in Bolivia.
- Puma – Frequently recorded on both camera traps and night drives.
- Ocelot – Often seen along sandy tracks and forest edges.
- Jaguarundi – A rare but possible sighting in this vast and undisturbed habitat.
- Geoffroy’s Cat – One of the best locations anywhere to encounter this elusive species.
A Hotspot for Rare and Localized Bird Species
For birdwatchers, Kaa Iya is a treasure trove of Chaco endemics and lowland specialties. Key species often targeted on our tours include:
- Black-legged Seriema – A highly sought-after rarity of the Chaco region.
- Chaco Finch – A localized species best found in the dry forest mosaic.
- Numerous raptors, tinamous, woodpeckers, and night birds that thrive in this semi-arid environment.
With expert wildlife guides and professional equipment—including spotting scopes, thermals, and high-end binoculars—Nick’s Adventures Bolivia delivers some of the most successful birding experiences in the Chaco.
