Mururata, Mountain summit in the Cordillera Real, Bolivia.

Mururata rises to an elevation of 5,871 meters above sea level, standing prominently in the Cordillera Real range, 35 kilometers east of La Paz.

The first documented climb to the summit of Mururata occurred in 1937, marking the beginning of regular mountaineering expeditions to this Andean peak.

Local Andean legends tell that Illimani mountain removed Mururata's peak out of envy, explaining the characteristic flat top of this mountain formation.

The mountain presents accessible climbing routes without technical obstacles, making it suitable for mountaineers to reach the summit during the dry season.

At the base of Mururata lies Laguna Arkhata, creating a natural mirror that reflects the mountain's silhouette against the Bolivian sky.

GPS coordinates: -16.51877,-67.81738
