Fortin Toledo

Chaco War site and conservation area known for peccary breeding work

Fortin Toledo combines Chaco War history with conservation interest in the dry Paraguayan Chaco. The area is especially associated with work to protect and breed the Chacoan peccary, a species once thought extinct by science.

It is a low-key but worthwhile excursion from Filadelfia for travelers interested in the Chaco beyond Mennonite settlements. Go with local advice, since distances, heat, and road conditions shape the experience.
