Pomerape
One of the “Payachatas” twins
Overview
Pomerape is the other of the Payachatas (twins), located on the border of Chile and Bolivia (Sajama National Park). It is slightly smaller and relatively close, with an ascent and program very similar to its twin. However, the difference lies in its slightly more technical nature. It is not very popular, and ascents are infrequent, but it undoubtedly offers a great experience.
