Ticlio

Ticlio is a mountain pass and the highest point of the central road of Peru, in the Andes mountains, reaching a height of 4,818 metres. It used to be a railway crossing loop on the Ferrocarril Central Andino in Peru, whose main claim to fame was being the highest railway junction in the world. The railway now crosses the pass through the nearby Galera Summit Tunnel at a lower elevation of 4,783 m and enters a different valley than the highway on the eastern side of the pass. ()
