When I was there, our Bolivian drivers assured us that it was necessary to have a DIFROL permit to climb Ollague and they would not drive us to the peak. It seems that it is now necessary to have the DIFROL permit to climb any peak in Chile. Do you know anything about this? Perhaps it's only necessary for foreigners.
Actualy i know something about that. At Ollague village there's a small police station, people can ask for the permit there, but i'm not sure about fee...
