On the Venezuela side, they pay a small fee to be allowed to pass on the trails. When the border is open, 35,000 to 45,000 people are estimated to cross over daily, most for work or to attend school. Every day, about 5,000 of that number don’t return to Venezuela. Instead, they try to find work in Venezuela or move on to other countries nearby.
