Lake Titicaca

Find Your Trip

EXPERIENCE

A Floating Civilization

Just an hour or so outside of Bolivia’s capital, La Paz, is the world’s highest navigable lake, Lake Titicaca. Lake Titicaca was
once home to the ancient Tiwanaku culture, which left traces of their civilization behind in the megalithic architecture and
complex agricultural systems.

Here, visitors can learn about indigenous cultures that live on the Lake, and enjoy an ever-present backdrop of the snow-
capped cordillera real which creates stunning views of the lake.

Discover Lake Titicaca

CULTURE

Following the mysterious disappearance of the Tiwanaku, the Quechua, and Aymara peoples have since inhabited the land and have maintained their exceptionally rich, centuries-old folk traditions. Several different communities still make their home on the lake. Arguably the most intriguing community here is the Uros, who live on floating totora reed islands that are built and maintained entirely by hand. 

ADVENTURE

Adventure is abundant in Lake Titicaca, which offers visitors spectacular hiking, biking, and trekking opportunities - all providing incredible views of the Andes Mountains and the famed Lake Titicaca. For the classic view of Copacabana and the lake, hike up Cerro Calvario- it's particularly beautiful at sunset. For a taste of local village life combined with incredible, jaw-dropping views - renting bikes and biking along the trail to Yampupata gives visitors a chance to see spectacular lake views.  

NATURE

Lake Titicaca is the largest freshwater lake in South America and the highest of the world's largest lakes. The lake lies between Andean ranges in a vast basin that comprises most of the Altiplano (High Plateau) of the northern Andes. In the snow-covered Cordillera Real on the northeastern shore of the lake, some of the highest peaks in the Andes rise to heights of more than 21,000 feet or 6,400m. This location provides an incredible opportunity for nature lovers to simultaneously enjoy picturesque lake and mountain views.
