Ch'iyar Qirini, Mountain summit in Cordillera Real, Bolivia.

Ch'iyar Qirini rises to 5,363 meters in the Bolivian Andes, featuring steep slopes and rocky formations near the border of El Alto Municipality.

Indigenous populations of the Cordillera Real region have traversed the paths around Ch'iyar Qirini mountain for centuries, establishing traditional routes.

The name derives from Aymara language elements: ch'iyara meaning black and qiri meaning scale, reflecting the local linguistic heritage of Bolivia.

Access to Ch'iyar Qirini requires a 4x4 vehicle to navigate the 17-kilometer unpaved road from Ruta 41, with an elevation gain of 874 meters.

Two Qillwani Lakes north of the summit provide additional natural landmarks in this high-altitude environment of the Cordillera Real range.
