SORATA, PLATFORM ZONGO CLIMBING HUAYNA POTOSÍ

This is a difficult and very hard trip because it is carried through the entire Cordillera Real beginning in Sorata a great valley, and continue to Palca, Huarihuarini, after a few days we arrived at Condoriri a beautiful place in the Andes.

When making this trip, we can appreciate beautiful natural landscapes, vegetation, animals and above all the peace that provides the silence of the plateau. We will walk paths and paths that are used by the comunarios and inhabitants that communicate of the different towns by which we have to pass. Bringing us an opportunity to share with the villagers.

From the valley we will go up to the high plateau, with which we will notice a change in the environment, advancing with the trip we will find the climate of the mountains, touching at times Huayna Potosí, the climate will be more adverse due to the cold wind.
