Jathi Qullu is a mountain summit in the Cordillera Real range of the Bolivian Andes, reaching 5,421 meters above sea level. The peak stands northeast of La Paz within the Yanacachi Municipality, dominating the surrounding alpine terrain.
The name comes from the Aymara language, where 'jathi' means heavy and 'qullu' means mountain. This naming reflects how Andean communities have long connected their language to the physical landscape around them.
Indigenous communities near Jathi Qullu maintain traditional agricultural practices and celebrate seasonal festivals connected to the mountain environment.
