I'll tell you once and for all, it has been one of the most exhausting trails I've ever been on, but as I passed by each viewpoint that was taken away and when I reached the end of this trail it felt like winning a prize and of course, in the last picture you will know, it has been one of the best panoramic views of my city and its nearby municipalities.
Les digo de una vez, ha sido uno de los senderos más agotadoras que he tenido, pero al pasar por cada mirador eso se me quitaba y al llegar al final de este sendero se sintió como ganar un premio y claro que si, en la ultima fotografía sabrán, ha sido una de las mejores vistas panorámicas de mi cuidad y sus municipios cercanos.
I want to emphasize that I also had time without climbing such long trails, weeks ago I resumed my favorite trail which is the Leonor Bernabó Park and it is a trail that I have walked since I was a teenager and is still for me one of the best and that leaves you with feelings of freedom and peace.
Quiero destacar que también tenia tiempo sin subir senderos tan largos, hace semanas retomé mi sendero preferido que es el del Parque Leonor Bernabó y es un sendero que lo he recorrido desde mi adolescencia y sigue siendo para mi uno de los mejores y que te deja sensaciones de libertad y paz.
As many of you know and if not, I live in a beautiful valley, the city of San Felipe, Yaracuy, surrounded by mountains and lots of green, and its nearby municipalities as well, this trail is in one of those municipalities very close to the city of San Felipe, the name of this municipality is quite peculiar, it is called Cocorote and is a small municipality but with great agricultural movement that maintains its economy.
Como muchos sabes y sino igual les digo, vivo en un hermoso valle, la cuidad de San Felipe, Yaracuy, rodeada de montañas y de mucho verde, y sus municipios cercanos también, este sendero esta en uno de esos municipios muy cercano a la cuidad de San Felipe, el nombre de este municipio es bastante peculiar, se llama Cocorote y es un municipio pequeño pero con gran movimiento agrario que mantiene su economía.
Paraguito, the name of this great trail, was a real challenge because I had not taken into account that it was so long, I had always wanted to climb but I did not think it would be so rough and my dear Eileen and Gabo did not remind me either, in this case Eileen who had already climbed this trail a couple of years ago.
Paraguito, el nombre de este gran sendero, fue un verdadero reto porque no tenia en cuenta que era tan largo, siempre había querido subir pero no pensé que iba hacer tan rudo y mis queridos Eileen y Gabo tampoco me lo recordaron, en este caso Eileen que ya había subido este sendero un par de años atrás.
We did many things wrong, a trail of 3.8km almost 4km up (although talking to some guides agrees that it is 4.5km) almost three hours up, we climbed it a little late, the sun did its thing and the vital liquid; water, was nil and reaching the end of the trail, so imagine how difficult it was.
Hicimos muchas cosas mal, un sendero de 3.8km casi 4km subiendo (aunque hablando con algunos guías concuerda que es de 4.5km) casi tres horas subiendo, lo subimos algo tarde, el sol hizo de las suyas y el vital liquido; el agua, fue nula ya llegando al final del sendero, así que imaginen lo difícil que fue.
However, as I said at the beginning, it was worth all the effort, because every time we reached the viewpoints it was an image that filled the soul and rekindled the desire to continue.
Sin embargo, como les dije al principio valió la pena todo el esfuerzo, porque cada vez que llegábamos a los miradores era una imagen que llenaba el alma y reiniciaba las ganas de seguir.
Paraguito, Cocorote municipality, is one of the most beautiful trails that this municipality has and is very popular since a couple of years ago that was more visited by those viewpoints that captivated many when their photographs went viral.
Now that I knew it, seeing how challenging it is I would do it again, now with water and hat, because it is worth every step on that mountain.
Paraguito, municipio cocorote, es uno de los senderos mas bonitos que tiene este municipio y es muy popular desde hace un par de años atrás que fue más visitados por esos miradores que cautivaron a muchos cuando se volvieron virales sus fotografías.
Ahora que lo conocí, viendo lo retador que es lo volvería hacer, ahora con agua y sombrero, porque vale la pena cada paso en esa montaña.
This was the last sign we saw about the kilometer count but after this notice it was several minutes before we reached the end of the trail, so it may be true what some guides and locals say when they say that the trail is longer.
Este fue el ultimo cartel que vimos sobre el conteo de los kilómetros pero después de este aviso pasaron varios minutos antes de llegar al final del sendero, así que si puede ser verdad lo que dicen algunos guías y personas de la localidad cuando dicen que es más largo el trayecto.
Reaching the wings so named by the networks was like winning a prize and the prize was that view you see behind me.
Llegar a las alas tan nombradas por las redes fue como ganar un premio y el premio fue esa vista que observan detrás de mi.

Wow, that's another great post from you! It seems like yesterday I was reading your awesome post.
My state of Yaracuy is small but big in many landscapes and touristic places, I have had the joy of visiting some of them and I am already planning to go to others. My desire is to know my city and my state in its entirety and thus feel more proud to have been born in Yaracuy and in Venezuela. That if someday you want to come here you can see that you will have a lot to travel and that you will always be welcome in my country.
