==Descripción Generaldescription==
A lovely walk through the middle of Lago Uru Uru allowing views of the many birds and life which occupies the lake. Quite flat but at 4,000 m, it is a good way to acclimate to the elevation and experience the remnants of an ancient lake.
==Época adecuadaSeason==

Year round, weather dependent. Said so, june to august are the driest months, and the best season to walk. Because of the altitude, Oruro is cold at night year round.
==AccesoAcces=====En vehículo propioBy car===
Park on either end of the route on RN 1, though your vehicle may be easier to access and less likely to be robbed if left in Machacamarca
===En transporte público y autostopBy public transportation===
Take a taxi to the point where the railroad track meets the end of the city. Taxis in Oruro are very, very cheap.
Optional: Walking out from Oruro it would be straightforward to begin from the Central Terminal station, 1 block from where you will find the railroad track which the route follows. It ends in the town of Machacamarca, at a roundabout where all the "minis" (public transportation white vans) depart. Returning to the city it cost less than 4 Bolivianos on one of many minis which leave frequently throughout the day back to Oruro, near the terminal where the route began.

This route is 25 km long of lovely, easy, flat walking, passing through the heart and markets of the city of Oruro, out past the edges of town, then along the railroad burm which departs to the south of the city. The entire route follows the railroad tracks so it is easy navigation.
Approaching Machacamarca we saw a complex of small, private mining operations which were actively being worked and an intersting insight into the mining culture of the country.
===Tiempo EsperadoExpected time===
4-5 hours
{{Sin permisosNo permits or fees}}
==RecomendacionesRecommendations==
* There is no running water along the route.
* If you are an avid bird watcher, bring binoculars.
* Check the weather forecast the day previous, you will be extremely exposed through the majority of this walk without an option to get back other than by foot.
* Remain ever aware in case of trains. There are a few spots where it would be difficult to get out of the way without going into the water. If it is a low water time of year, there is a road which will appear alongside the tracks.
