Classic alpine trekking The Trans Cordillera is one of the more popular treks in the Cordillera Real. On this trek, we only trek a part of the Trans cordillera Real. The part is on the Altiplano where we will cross several passes allowing you spectacular views of the Cordillera. You will see beautiful valleys, glacial lakes and wildlife and you will also have the opportunity to meet indigenous communities that are largely untouched by modern society. |
In the morning, we drive out to Lake Quta Qutia. Our drive takes us through the city of Al Alto.
