Description

Bolivia is one of those countries that can easily classified as a hikers dream. There are so many different regions that are ripe for short, medium, or long hiking expeditions. And each one will present you with an incredible amount of pure, natural beauty that you will never forget. And on this trip, you will get to hike for 3 days through the Condoriri massif, until we descend into the unforgettable Chacapampa valley.

Well known for its altitude, participants in this trip should arrive a few days early so they can properly acclimatize. Thus ensuring that you will have an enjoyable, worry free hiking journey. Participants should also be in good physical condition in order to handle the rigours of the trek as well.

The trip will begin in the city of La Paz (3,640m). From there, we will take a 2 hour drive to the Tuni lagoon (4,200m). After that we will hike for 3 hours until we reach the Chiarkhota lagoon (4,600m), where we will set up camp and sleep for the night.

The second day of the trip will see us hiking from the Chiarkhota lagoon to the Livinosa lagoon (3,800m), where we will camp for the night.

Finally, on the third and final day of the hike, we will make our way down into the Chacapampa valley (3,400m). You will have a lot of time here to explore and admire the gorgeous area. After lunch, we will then take a transport back to La Paz.

Throughout this hike to the Chacapampa valley, you will get to enjoy some absolutely stunning views of not only the various lagoons and landscape, but also of the Cordillera Real, including the beautiful and massive Huayna Potosi mountain (6,088m). If you would like to join me, please send me a request.

Would you like to climb the great Huayna Potosi mountain? If you do, I can help you do so on this 2 day trek.

Mountain Guide

I work together with several IFMGA/UIAGM colleagues. So if I'm not available to guide you, one of my colleagues equally certified will guide you.

I began to climb the mountain when I was 15 years old. I was born in Pinaya (3.800 m.a.s.l.), a region located not far away from the top of the base camp of the majestic snow-covered Illimani (6.462 m.a.s.l.). I dedicated most part of my life to climb different ice and Rock Mountains through the Cordillera Real, Cordillera Occidental, and Cordillera de Apolobamba.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
