Corrdiliera Real

As with Cordiliera Real is located in the middle of the road from La Paz to Copacabana on Lake Titicaca, combine it in a story that has more than zoorganozowanej haosu and thought of the expedition.
A towering over the city Corrdylierze wiedzilismy to nothing, and plan to go to these wild and basically hard accessible areas began after seeing a photograph bands przepinknego Condorini:))) Asking people here and we organized the expedition uwdzie:))) with a supply of food and forces landed on the total zapupiu where, as it turned out not anything special besides drivin chorendalnie expensive taxis. To the town of Tuni in the mountains we had another 20 km and the taxi drivers refused we had two outputs, or go to the shoe with a full inventory Or wait until whatever will go to the mountains. We chose the first option, which after an hour walk turned into options for the road:))) Well, after waiting some time appeared to native rickety automobile, which provided a relatively cheap access to the mountains. Trreking lasted two days and trza definitely say that this part of Corrdiliery is fantastic. Overnight in the mountains at an altitude of more than 5 thousand. m, okliczne high, snow-capped peaks and the fact that we were the only people here (only herds of llama and alpacas) had my us feel like true pioneers. Overnight at the height spowodowl male health complications, because the temperature fell thickly below zero and our equipment is prepared for a minimum of 5 degrees. Uwiezcie, with coarse August morning we were surprised how stiff ujzelismy our tent on the ice. But apart from that we managed and the effort was rewarded by the experience of racial mountain :))))

back to rzezcywistosci turned out to be a lot simpler than it could provide suppose. We caught an old, beat-up Ford and got to the main road with the intention of reaching the present Copacabana. But ........ because there is always a but:))) It turned out that because of the great week she moved to La Paz, the great pilgrimage to Copacabana, which is Calvaria and holy place. It also emerged from this year provided a new pilgrimage route that led through the beautiful island of Titicaca. Podlapalismy idea right away and we went in a pseudo-pilgrimage. Pseudo because the plan was to hitchhike a ride everything and sail boats. The plan was miserable because as it turned out, the route was so constructed in order upupic us in the middle. It came from the fact we went a little and different distance polywalismy boat from island to island ...... but what we nachodzilismy these are our heavy knapsacks. In fact, it was our personal pilgrimage. People on the road sometimes for the first time saw the gringo, and I think we're real pilgrims. The inches we not make life easy, the question whether there is some transport responded in style, "we'll show you the way," you can not go, had to go, "is only 40 km", etc. Milo was now see some of Lake Titicaca completely the other hand, since the parties have not spoiled by mass tourism. przemieszcaja August Hockey which vary from the local motor sailing for rowing. These famous cane, which we all know from TV serve only as attractions for tourists. Already no one uses them in everyday life, because they are not very practical. For us the most pleasant moments were in a rowing boat, where nothing zaklucalo holiness of Lake Titicaca.

After two days of digging through pilgrimage route we arrived and as Capacabany us feel part of it all at once we went to the cathedral and said a short prayers to the Virgin of Candelaria. And it was by the end of the religious part, now part of the commercial and will happen - resort. As
, with a little podziebilismy in the mountains, we could not push through, and we spent three lazy days by eating fish, resting and basking on the shores of the lake. One night we spent on the Island of the Sun (Isla del Sol), where according to Inca beliefs gave rise to the sun each day. Island to our surprise is not komercejna and enchants its idyllic atmosphere. The ruins of old temples and beautiful scenery allow you to relocate some of the old days.

Titicaca lake itself is just enormous. Situated at an altitude of nearly four thousand. m is the highest large body of water in the world (the next in the series NAJ in South America.). In general, how to not look more like the sea, and the water in the crystal and blue as Adriatic. It is a pity that so cold but what to expect at this altitude:)))
