This is the best way to enjoy this magnificent lake. The Sacred Lake for two main cultures: the Tiwanakans 1500 BC and the Incas. We start on a Bus from La Paz in order to get to the starting point by the lake.

Absolutely Off the Beaten Track! Walking around the lake is simply overwhelming and camping at one of its solitary beaches will blow out your minds.

You will also get the best views of the Lake as you will walk it on both sides.
