'Cordillera Real' is a mountain range in the South American Altiplano of Bolivia.
Cordillera Real is a granite range of fold mountains east of the Bolivian capital of La Paz, measuring 125 km in length and 20 km in width. There are six summits higher than 6,000 m in the cordillera which are from north to south:

★ Pico del Norte (6070 m)

★ Illampú (6368 m)

★ Ancohuma (6427 m)

★ Chachacomani (6074 m)

★ Huayna Potosi (6088 m)

★ Illimani (6462 m)
As a result of its proximity to the Amazon lowlands and the rise of moist air masses from there, the mountain range is glaciated at a relatively high amount.
