Sajama and around
The park's administrative centre is the village of
SAJAMA
at the foot of the volcano. Here
you can find food, accommodation, guides, jeep hire and information. The routes to attrac-
tions close to the village are marked with signposts and are reasonably easy to follow. One
of the best hikes (3-4hr each way) is up to the
Sajama base camp
, a well-marked trek that
offers fantastic views. The
highest forest in the world
is about thirty minutes' walk up from
Sajama village, though it's not overly impressive.
