Kunturiri, Mountain peak in Cordillera Real, Bolivia

Kunturiri reaches an elevation of 5,648 meters, forming part of a massif with three distinct peaks in the La Paz Department of Bolivia.

German mountaineer Wilfrid Kühm completed the first documented ascent of Kunturiri's main summit in 1941, marking a milestone in Bolivian mountaineering history.

The mountain's name originates from Aymara language elements, with 'kuntu' referring to condor and the suffix '-iri', reflecting indigenous linguistic heritage.

Mountaineers require extensive high-altitude experience and technical climbing equipment to attempt the summit, with the best climbing conditions occurring from May to September.

The three peaks of the Kunturiri massif create a natural formation resembling a condor with spread wings, including the main peak, Ala Izquierda, and Ala Norte.
