It is also on my lifetime list of roads I plan to travel. Crazy but true. In fact I only want to ride a section of the Interoceanic Highway from Peru, to Porto Velho, Brazil, then north on a long dirt road called BR 319 to Manaus...that is not a road for the faint of heart. =)
Here is some useful information care of Wikipedia.

PS: Interoceanic does not go through Bolivia. I am not sure why Axel__88 posted the map that he did, unless it was as an alternate route.

Hello!
Indeed, the picture mentions "tren bioceanico", a railroad from Peru, Bolivia and Brazil. Not related to the Interoceanic Highway referred.
Anyway, three years ago I traveled to Corumbá (Brazil/Bolivia border) and made a route very similar to the one in the picture, which crosses part of the Pantanal area. Took nice pictures. Next time I intend to go through the "Estrada Parque", an offroad route that is located literally in the middle of the Pantanal, and allows us to see beautiful vistas and lots of animals in freedom.
