Visitor Reviews of Chacaltaya
Diego from ARGENTINA writes:
I have skied 10 years ago in Chacaltaya. I was coming from a lower level than La Paz, from Tipuani river and the same morning of my arrival I went up to Chacaltaya.
The bus driver drank gin to get courage to face the ice on the road. One woman complained to the driver and most of the passangers told her that she shouldn't bother.
The lifter had a wooden device with a rope and a hook and you should keep it when you were skiing, the problem was that if you left the device in lifter cable, all the system breaks down, as it finally occured (I was the guilty).
Anyway, the snow was incredible, the view superb, the people friendly, and the drivers gin was fine.
Pity my headache.
