Chilata Lake

About

Laguna Chilata (also spelled Chillata), is a lake in the Larecaja Province, La Paz Department, Bolivia. At an elevation of 5030 m, its surface area is 0.05 km². The Lake is part of the Cordillera Real mountain range; it is often accessed, visited and viewed after a full-day hike/tour that starts in Sorata with a transfer or overnight stay to the Laguna Chilata, or directly on foot from the village (longer and more challenging) up to Camparmento Laguna Chilata, which takes approximately 6 hours.
