If you are looking for adventure in South America, we suggest to visit the following:
National Park Sajama
In a corner of the Altiplano, due west of Oruro is the sacred mountain of volcano Sajama, highest peak in Bolivia and long revered by the ancient Uru peoples. A place of great natural beauty, it is a favorite with climbers and people who wish to explore this remote and mystical landscape. and a rainy season in the summer. The rivers in the area belong to the inward flowing high plateau river system dominated by the Sajama. Important volcanic cones, like Mount Sajama and the Payachatas are located in the park, together with several lagoons and high lying Andean marshes, where hardy and silicified grasses and a variety of rosette-shaped plants are to be found.
National park Condoriri
The Condoriri National Park, located on the Royal Mountain Range. displays a great natural potential. Beautifully preserved, it is tucked away in the mountains dotted with crystal clear mountain lakes, a product of the constant thawing of the glaciers. Observe stunning ice stalactites forming their unique shapes down cascading waterfalls.
The Condoriri, condor head in Aymara, is a group of 13 equally attractive peaks, where the Nevado Condoriri is the highest and most imposing mountain in the group. From the arrival in La Paz we can already recognize its summit with its glaciers. To the west we find the Pico Austria (Austria peak), a light ascent allows us a magnificent overview of the Cordillera Real, the high plains of the Altiplano and Lake Titicaca.
This trek ascends completely solitary mountains; the total silence of the mountains is only disturbed when passing llamas break up the ice. From these altitudes you can observe the silvery shimmer of light reflected by the worlds highest navigable lake, while trekking in the company of numerous llamas, the occasional alpaca and many smaller animals such as viscachas, lizards, ibises and gulls.
Condoriri 5.700m / 18.700ft classic route
The Condoriri area is a particularly attractive zone to practice climbing. Although the summits are not as high as other peaks, the variety of different terrains encountered and skills needed makes for a very exciting experience. This itinerary also allows you to enjoy climbing even with less experience and train your self on ice to gradually gain more and more technical knowledge and skills.

Illampu 6.342m / 20.807ft classic route
