Condoriri Trek 3D / 2N
One can only reach the Condoriri base camp by foot beginning at Tuni Lagoon. The views are highly rewarding, overlooking the immense Condoriri Massif, 13 snow packed peaks ranging from 5,100 – 5, 648 m. This is a fantastic high altitude trek, but not for the faint hearted, it offers spectacular views of glaciated peaks, distant views of Lake Titicaca and the odds are great for spotting condors.
