Overview
Pomerape, the other peak of the Payachata ‘Twins,’ straddles the border of Chile and Bolivia within Sajama National Park. Slightly lower than its twin Parinacota, it offers a more technical ascent along a similar route. Less frequented by climbers, Pomerape provides a unique and exclusive alpine experience, rewarding those who venture to its summit with expansive views of the Andes, surrounding volcanoes, and the high-altitude landscape of Sajama.
