HUAYNA POTOSI (6.080
m), is located 25 km from the city of La
Paz. The mountain is crowded. Its normal
route easily accessible by road La Paz -
Zongo.
The mountain of Huayna
Potosi joins the line of the Cordillera Real
peaks by a string of minor but abrupt.
Huayna Potosi has a special attraction, an
aesthetic appeal for the mountaineer. In
recent years, the normal route has been
climbing hundreds of times per season, which
is comparable to Huascaran in the Cordillera
Blanca of Peru.
The best time for climbing in the Cordillera
Real is between the months of May and
October, when rainfall is minimal and the
skies are fairly clear. |
