Itinerary
From the second pick-up point to the store it is a 30-minute trip. Here you can see how we begin to leave the city crossing part of the highway.
This is your chance to get last minute essentials, whether it be water, cookies, etc. for walking.
From the store to our first stop we have approximately 30 minutes, a stop to give some explanations and photographs at the "Jilarata" viewpoint. This place offers us a panoramic view of two main mountains in the region: Huayna Potosí and Chacaltaya. For that we stay here for 20 minutes maximum.
After approximately 30 minutes of travel, we continue with the second point: The Milluni Cemetery. we get brief historical information about the reason and origin of the cemetery. Then, we will have time for more photos from this very close point of the Huayna Potosí mountain.
After 30 minutes of travel we arrived at the Charquini Base Camp, where we began an exciting walk through a paradise for nature lovers, and after walking for an hour or an hour and a half we arrived at the Charquini lagoon. You've earned this break! Relax for about an hour by the lagoon, take Instagram-worthy photos, or just breathe in the fresh air. Then we will walk back to base camp for approximately 40 minutes descending, and each step will reflect the satisfactory culmination of an adventure well lived
All ready again at base camp, we embarked for the return to La Paz. After an hour and a half of travel we arrive at the central part of La Paz and we will ensure that you return safely to your central hotels, while we say goodbye to you, until your next adventure arrives.

About La Paz
La Paz is Bolivia's seat of government, a high-altitude city in a canyon below Illimani, linked by cable car and known for its markets.
La Paz fills a steep canyon on the Altiplano, between roughly 3,200 and 4,000 metres above sea level, with the snowy peak of Illimani standing over its southern edge. Sucre is the constitutional capital, but the government sits here. Plaza Murillo holds the cathedral and the presidential palace, and nearby Calle Jaén keeps colonial houses and small museums.
Top-ranked sights in La Paz: San Francisco Church, Plaza Murillo, Witches' Market (Mercado de las Brujas).
