sorroche means altitude sickness!

nights in putre are very cold.leaving arica under hot sun,don't forget to take with you warm clothes!

Unique Suggestions: in putre,gate to PN Lauca,at 3500m high,ideal place to spend one night,coming from sea level,to get acclimatized to altitude,and avoid sorroche.

Fun Alternatives: see accomodation tip.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
