Conservation
The salt flats and Titicaca ecosystems are sensitive to tourism and extraction; prioritize low-impact visits, avoid leaving waste, and support local operators who fund community conservation.

Acclimatize before heavy exertion
Spend your first day in La Paz taking it easy; avoid long hikes or heavy exertion for 24–48 hours to reduce altitude sickness risk.
Protect against UV
High altitude amplifies sun exposure—use SPF 50+, sunglasses, and a broad hat, even on cold days.
Carry cash in small bills
Remote towns and small vendors at markets and islands may not accept cards—carry Bolivianos in low denominations.
Footwear for mixed terrain
Bring sturdy ankle-support shoes for rocky mine tours and Incahuasi’s uneven volcanic surfaces.
Layered clothing system
Warm insulating layers and a windproof shell handle big daytime-to-night temperature swings.
High-SPF sunscreen and sunglasses
Protects skin and eyes from intense high-altitude UV across all days.
Sturdy hiking shoes
Provides traction and ankle support on salt crust, volcanic rock and mine paths.
Reusable water bottle with purifier tabs
Staying hydrated is essential at altitude; purification helps when potable water is limited.
