FAQs: Mountain Climbing in Bolivia

What should I know about Mountain Climbing Chachacomani?

Situated 62.5 kilometers north of La Paz and rising to an impressive elevation of 6.074 meters above sea level, Chachacomani is one of the least climbed peaks in the Andes.

Home to sheltered valleys, glaciers and lakes, the peak inhabits various different microclimates, which makes for a unique climbing experience. There are plenty of opportunities to see native wildlife as well as experience the sublime beauty of Bolivia’s backcountry

Most mountain climbing trips to the summit take about six days, though many climbers opt to visit other peaks in the Cordillera Real as well. The climbing is a bit technical and requires quite a bit of endurance. As a result ascents of the peak are best suited to intermediate-level climbers with a good level of physical fitness.

Why should I choose Chachacomani for my Mountain Climbing adventure?

Stunning scenery

Located in the incredibly scenic province of Larecaja, any mountain climbing expedition to Chachacomani yields incredible views the entire way. From the summit, enjoy excellent vistas over surrounding peaks and all the way out to Lake Titicaca. The way up provides great glacial views and glimpses into hidden canyons too.

Get off the beaten path

Due to its remote setting, fewer people venture to the slopes of Chachacomani than other popular mountain climbing destination in South America. This makes the fairly isolated peak the ideal place to spend a well-deserved holiday. Enjoy great scenery and excellent climbing all to yourself. No lines to reach the summit here.

See La Paz

Since just about every trip to Chachacomani begins with a flight into La Paz, take a few days to see the extraordinary city.

Also be sure to check out the local markets to experience some of the country’s rich culture and delicious local cuisine.
