Sajama National Park
2 Days / 1 Night

Sajama National Park, Ranging beyond 3,900 meters above sea level, the Bolivian Altiplano hosts several snow peaks, which belong to a chain of active volcanoes. The powerful mythic Caranga culture possessed señoríos (kingdoms) in this region long before the Incas and Spanish. Sajama Volcano is the highest peak in Bolivia, at 6,437. The harsh alpine landscape is striking and beautiful from sunrise to sunset. Extensive pasturelands are home to llamas, alpacas and vicuñas and many species of Altiplano and Andean birds such as the threatened Andean Rhea, three species of flamingos, eagles and hawks, and Andean Flickers. Historical attractions include Pre-Inca chullpas (burial tombs) and several small churches built during the 17th century by Spanish. Today local residents preserve a rich mix of traditional customs intertwined with Pre-Inca and colonial influences, infusing Sajama´s atmosphere with a sense of sacred, enduring qualities.
