Bolivia is a land of extraordinary contrasts and extremes - in terms of geography, topography, climate, history and culture. It also has some of the most wild and beautiful mountains in the World, and over the course of this 3 week trip we aim to see of much of the Country as possible and climb up to 4 alpine peaks. Starting in the fascinating ancient city of La Paz, we then spend a few days acclimatising to the thin air and taking in the sights and sounds of Lake Titikaka and it's surrounding area. With our bodies now able to start trekking, we drive into the remote and deserted wilderness of the Cordillera Apolobamba, where we make 3 alpine style ascents of nearby peaks. After a rest back in La Paz (wtih an optional excursion to the World famous pre - Inca ruins at Tiwanaku) we head back into the mountains to climb Sajama (6542m), the highest peak in Bolivia. With everything from technical mountaineering through to cultural visits, this trip has it all.
