Volcano Parinacota


Volcán Parinacota is a symmetrical youthful stratovolcano in northern Chile close to the outskirt with Bolivia. Alongside more established Pomerape (6222 m) well of lava 4 km to the NE it shapes the Nevados de Payachata volcanic gathering. 

Parinacota contains an unblemished, 300 expansive summit hole and youthful magma streams on the western flanks. There are no verifiable emissions, however the spring of gushing lava has had dangerous and profuse ejections from both the summit cavity and the Ajata gathering of flank vents in the previous couple of 1000 years and is viewed as a dynamic spring of gushing lava. A substantial area crumple happened at Parinacota around 8000 years prior. The 6 km3 torrential slide flew out 22 km toward the west and made a dam, where Chungará Lake (4520 m) was framed. The lake silt give imperative data about natural and atmosphere changes in the tropical Andes. Laguna de Cotacotani (4495 m) is another lake on the SW flank of the fountain of liquid magma. The Payachatas


(twins) are put up close and personal. One of them is the Parinacota and the other one is the Pomerape. They are situated in the National Park Sajama close to the Chilean outskirt. The slant is generally slight. The Parinacota is the commonplace fountain of liquid magma in practically consummate cone shape. Its climb from a specialized perspective is simple; be that as it may it constitutes a long excursion in the height.Departure from La Paz by private vehicle on a decent thruway to land in 5 and half hours to the base of the Parinacota and of the Pomerape at 4800m in the National Park Sajama. From that point, they will be fundamental around 2 hours by walking to achieve the base camp situated between the two mountains. Our rising starts at 3am to land at the summit roughly 10.00am. We then start our arrival to the high camp of here we proceed to the town of Sajama where we will spend the night. Before backpedaling to La Paz we clean up in the warm waters... Pomerape is thought to be torpid and a more established mountain, so entirely, these two pinnacles are just twins by appearance, not by birth. As a result of its practically consummate symmetry and attractive snow top, the pinnacle has turned into a most loved for visitors, picture takers and obviously climbers. The typical course is a stroll on scree and later ice/snow and as the slant from time to time gets to be distinctly more extreme than 40 degrees, essentially any fit individual can make an attempt to summit this exceptional lovely mountain. Parinacota was initially moved in 1928 by Joseph Prem and Carlos Terán. The primary climbing season is from late June to mid September. This is the winter period of the southern half of the globe. It's additionally the time with the least precipitation and most stable climate. Amongst May and September there's no danger of any rain or snow by any means. It's a high likelihood you'll pass the outskirt posts amongst Bolivia and Chile maybe a couple days before your planned move of Parinacota. The outskirt police more often than not have great information about the climate and in the event that they don't, approach them to call HQ for a crisp gauge. 


On both sides there are National Parks and the officers will bail you out with climate estimates. In fact speaking, Parinacota is an exceptionally direct climb, however make certain to bring a hatchet and crampons as there can be some frigid parts.
