About event

Peru's highest volcano and the country's 3rd highest peak is Coropuna, which stretches 6425m above sea level.

From the Quechua language, the name means Golden Mountain.

To this day, it is one of the most sacred mountains for the locals, at the foot of which many offerings and sacrifices were made.
Also human sacrifice.
This did not happen recently, so from this point of view the leader of VándorLáss, Zoltán Kovács-Kovi-Zoltan, was not in danger.

Since he was camping at an altitude of 5300m in the base camp he used, he had to overcome a difference in level of approximately 1150m approximately 6 kilometers away. But his journey began somewhere in Central Europe, in a remote Slovakian village. Quite far away in space and time...

It is exciting and interesting that he completed this distance and level (up and down) with nearly 14 hours of walking, holding on, and descending.

Word about acclimatization, the beliefs of the people living in the Andes, the spirits and gods of the mountain, the journey to the foot of the mountain, the night of the summit attack, the coca leaf (-tea), a windless ridge hike at an altitude of roughly five to six thousand meters, the ecstasy of reaching the summit, headache or the lack of it about offering sacrifices to the "fathers", the mountains, the spirits of the mountains and probably a lot more.
