Day 02.
Chiar Kohta - Pico Austria - La Paz - Today we start with our first high altitude ascent. Early in the morning we will take the path that continues up to Pico Austria at 5,200 m/16,060 ft. From this point it is possible to observe on clear days Lake Titicaca, part of the Cordillera and even the highest peak in Bolivia, the Sajama volcano. No equipment is required to get there, it's an easy hike and a perfect place to check our fitness. In the afternoon, we will return to La Paz by the same path.
