The parking spot and chorocho entrance is 200 - 300 meters further from the original google map direction. Take note on this ya.

Let's go in
Some notification by the authority
From start, the trail is going down...to the river.
Around 500 meters from start we reached a junction, take right. At this point, the sound of the river is clear.
(Well, there's a trail on the left but we don't know lead to where...we miss out this junction on our back, made us to u-turn back to the junction, luckily i kept an eye at my gps distance on why it's getting farther, supposed to be another 500 meters to exit but it shoot to 600 meters...so, becareful here ya...)
Moving another 200 meters or so, we reached this river wild... there's a section where the water level quite shallow... easy to get a cross.
And that's it, the entrance from start and river crossing done.
Take note the arrow where the trail continues
After river crossing, please prepare yourself for a ride of your life...crazy ascending around 2.4km to the top!
This is view at the top... nothing much to admire...except the sounds of the jungle..
