Jañuma Pirwa (Aymara jañu mosquito, uma water, pirwa, piwra granary,[2][3][4] Hispanicized spelling Jañuma Pirhua) is a 5,125-metre-high (16,814 ft) mountain in the Andes of Peru. It is located in the Arequipa Region, Caylloma Province, Tisco District. It lies southwest of Chuqi Pirwa and southeast of Pirwa.[5]

The Pirwamayu (Quechua for "granary river") originates north of the mountain. It flows to the south as a right affluent of the Qullqa River.[5]
