Pumuta, Mountain summit in Sajama Province, Bolivia.

Pumuta is a mountain in the Andes of Bolivia, about 5,200 metres high, in Sajama Canton of Curahuara de Carangas Municipality, Oruro Department. It lies north-west of the extinct Sajama volcano, south-west of Jach'a Kunturiri and north-east of Kunturiri and Jisk'a Kunturiri. The Kunturiri River rises south of the mountain.

Pumuta lies in Sajama Canton of Curahuara de Carangas Municipality, Oruro Department, northwest of the extinct Sajama volcano and southwest of Jach'a Kunturiri. Its name combines the Aymara words puma (cougar) and uta (house). The Kunturiri River rises south of the mountain and flows east as a tributary of the Sajama River.

The mountain's name comes from the Aymara language, with 'puma' referring to the big cat and 'uta' meaning house. This reflects how local communities connect the landscape to the animals that roam it.

Pumuta lies in Sajama Canton, Curahuara de Carangas Municipality, reached overland from Oruro Department centres; there is no marked trail or facility on the summit itself. The Kunturiri River rises just south of the mountain and runs south then east into the Sajama River, a useful line to follow when orienting from the Sajama volcano side.

The Kunturiri River originates on Pumuta's southern slopes and feeds into the larger Sajama River system. This water source proves crucial for sustaining life in an otherwise dry highland region.
