The Chachacomani (6074 m) has an enormous glacial plateau dotted with potholes and cracks that must be overcome before reaching its summit ridge very sharp. Without technical difficulty, climb this mountain offers interesting perspectives on the eastern and western slopes of the Cordillera Real: on one side, tropical valleys, on the other, the Altiplano and the Lake Titicaca. All around, peaks rivaling their beauty!
