Le trek du Condoriri est un très joli trek sans grosse difficulté technique, relativement proche de La Paz, et permettant de belles vues sur le massif du Condoriri.  Il permet de prendre de la hauteur toujours en « mode » trek jusqu’au Pic Austria qui culmine à 5300m d’altitude. Il permet également de vivre une partie de l’ambiance sauvage de la Cordillère des Andes Bolivienne et déconnecter complètement au cœur d’une nature exceptionnelle. Vue imprenable sur l’imposante « Tête du Condor ». Une très belle ambiance pour des trekkeurs moyens.

Departure from La Paz to reach the Laguna Khotia located in the south part of the Cordillera Real. From the Khotia Lake, the trail to Chiarkhota Lake is non-technical and among the most traveled in the Royal Cordillera. We start towards south, ascend to the “Contador” pass (4760 meters / 15 616 feet asl.), which offers a pretty view of mountain peaks that seem to plunge into a large valley. Lake Alka Quta is in view, as is the Palcoco nmine. We continue our descent to the valley following the cordillera, crossing a semi-swampy area close to the Surakhota lake (4410 meters / 14 468 feet asl.), and then heading up towards the south-east on the mountain to the Ajwani Lake (Lake of the birds, 4615 meters / 15 141 feet asl.), home to many ducks.

We start off towards the north-east, following the lake to a moraine. We climb up to Congelada lake (4880 meters / 16 010 feet asl.). The place is magic. The view is splendid, with the Condoriri glacier plunging into turquoise waters. The cliffs of the Left Wing and the Head of the Condor look imposing from here. We continue to the south-east and up a steep slope to the Austria pass at 5140 meters / 16 863 feet above sea level. A steep trek up screed terrain to its peak (5330 meters / 17 486 feet asl ) is optional before starting the descent. The Austria peak offers the best view of the Condoriri massif. We descend towards the south-east to Chiarkhota Lake (4680 meters / 15 354 feet asl), which is the base camp for Condoriri and Pequeño Alpamayo. Walking to reach the Rinconada spot where the vehicle is waiting. Private transfer to return to La Paz.
