What To Expect
Huayna Potosi is Bolivia’s most popular major peak in the Cordillera Real. Located at just 32 km from the city of La Paz, Huayna Potosi is known for its ease of access and imposing beauty as well as the fact that it is 88 meters over the magic 6000 meter figure. Huayna Potosi can be climbed by beginners with a competent guide and technical equipment. Beginners yes, but fit beginners; it’s quite steep toward the end and it’s a tough climb, but well worth the effort!

Good but definitely could be better

3.00The guides were very thorough and safe on the mountain. The food was good and accommodation was surprisingly comfy. However, the kit preparation on the morning of the tour was chaotic and they didn’t have all the sizes available for everyone. We were constantly told it’s fine without bits of kit if the size didn’t exist which was confusing - why give it to anyone at all then? When checking boots, the process was very rushed and both of us ended up with boots that were way too big making the ice climbing very difficult. It was either they didn’t care or didn’t know whether we had the right size boots. Also, don’t get tricked into thinking there’s a lot of ice climbing - you do a few hours on the first day and then don’t really need it after that.
