The Nevado Sajama (6,542m/21,463ft) – Bolivia’s highest peak, is located in this stunning national park. Legend has it that the Sajama volcano is the head that was cut off the (now flat-topped) mountain of Mururata by the god Wiracocha as punishment for being too arrogant.

We will also add a splash of culture by visiting Curahuara de Carangas and its famous colonial church known as the “Capilla Sixtina Andina” (Andean Sistine Chapel). This is one of the continent’s oldest churches. Different styles are merged here. The church is Renaissance, the paintings mannerist, the altar carved in gold leaf is baroque.
It is an indigenous reading and narrative about the old and new testaments. The murals recreate the scriptures the missionaries used to evangelize.
