There are different theories about the toponym, one of the most widespread by some is that it derives from quechua: iskaychay, which means "divide in two", supposedly referring to the highway.

Iscayachi has a simple guest house, and birdwatchers find it be a productive location to view the avifauna of the high valleys. It was formerly served by bus on the main long-distance bus routes between Tarija and western Bolivia before there was built a new mountain crossing road between Tarija in the east and San Lorencito in the west further in the north.
