Kunturiri, Mountain summit in Cordillera Real, Bolivia.

Kunturiri reaches 5,648 meters above sea level and forms part of a massif with three distinct peaks in the La Paz Department.

German mountaineer Wilfrid Kühm completed the first recorded ascent of Kunturiri in 1941, opening new possibilities for high-altitude climbing in Bolivia.

The mountain name originates from Aymara language, where kunturi represents a condor, reflecting the formation of peaks resembling spread wings.

Climbers begin their journey from La Paz, typically departing at 9:00 AM, and spend five days in the mountain region without communication coverage.

The massif contains three connected summits forming the shape of a condor: the main peak, Ala Izquierda, and Ala Norte.

GPS coordinates: -16.16919,-68.24367
