Kuntur Nasa, Mountain summit in Challapata Municipality, Bolivia.
Kuntur Nasa is a mountain summit in Challapata Municipality rising to about 4,600 meters (15,000 feet) with steep rocky slopes typical of the high Andes. The terrain features exposed stone and rugged conditions across its sides.
The mountain's name comes from the Aymara language, with 'kunturi' meaning condor and 'nasa' meaning nose. This naming reflects how local peoples have understood and spoken about this geographical feature for centuries.
Local communities see this peak as part of their spiritual world, incorporating it into seasonal gatherings and daily life around the mountain.
Access from Challapata requires planning and preparation for high-altitude conditions with steep terrain. Bring proper gear designed for mountain climbing at extreme elevation and allow time to acclimatize before starting.
The Millu Q'awa river originates from the southwestern flank of this summit and flows northwest through the valleys below. This water source sustains the landscape and communities across a wide surrounding area.
