ITINERARY
Day 1
We leave La Paz and drive for 3 hours to Pinaya (3800m) where we load our equipment onto donkeys and continue on foot to the base camp (4600m). This hike takes roughly 3 hours.
Day 2
After breakfast we organize our equipment for and give it to local porters. We then hike up a moraine and rocky ridge 5 hours to reach Nido de Condores (5550m), our high camp at the base of Illimani’s glacier.
Day 3
We start our summit attempt at 1AM, aiming to reach the summit between 7 and 8AM. The route zig-zags up the glacier with inclinations up to 50° before reaching a ridge which takes us to the summit - the highest point in the Cordillera Real (6442m)! We return by the same path, pack up our things at the high camp, and return to base camp. This is a long but rewarding day.
Day 4
We have a large breakfast before packing our equipment and returning to Pinaya where our car will be waiting to drive us back to La Paz.
