Acotango volcano sulfur mine Bolivia climb 6000

Acotango 6048m - un 6000m facil !

Acotango is just above the 6000m altitude limit. Furthermore our vehicles can drive you up to 5660m when the snow limit allows it. Walking up to the summit shouldn't take you more than four hours. From Tata Sajama village the volcano is climbed within a day. Acotango is thus a rather easy 6000+ summit, yet very beautiful. You will not only find translucid sulfur cristal but also appreciate the view on the other gigantic volcanoes from the Sajama park. In march and april snow condition are good for skiing. From may to december the volcano is climbed on foot & crampons.
