LAKE TITICACA Lake Titicaca, the largest lake in South America, lies on the border between Peru and Bolivia. At 3,812 m (12,507 ft.) above sea level is the highest navigable lake in the world. It has a total surface area of 8,372 km2 (3,232 mi 2 ). The lake is renowned for its deep sapphire-blue waters which contrast with the different shades of brown and ochre of the countryside, dotted here and there with small towns consisting of mud-brick houses with redcolored tiled roofs and stone churches. The blue skies are simply endless and the majestic snow-covered mountain peaks of Bolivia can be appreciated in the far distance. Lake Titicaca is notable for the unique floating islands of the Uros people, made from totora reeds. It also has a number of natural islands, including Amantani and Taquile in Peru, and the famous islands of the Sun and the Moon in Bolivia. Lake Titicaca holds large populations of water birds and several threatened species such as the huge Titicaca Water Frog and the flightless Titicaca Grebe which are largely or entirely restricted to the lake.
