Piedras Rojas Salt Flats and Altiplanic Lagoons

Our adventure begins early, between 06:00 and 06:30 hrs, from your hotel in San Pedro de Atacama, to make the most of the day and immerse ourselves in the amazing diversity of landscapes that await us.

We will ascend to an impressive 4,000 meters above sea level until we reach the Piedras Rojas, a unique geological formation characterized by its intense red rocks that contrast spectacularly with the turquoise waters of the lake that surrounds them. Here you will have the opportunity to explore this surreal landscape and capture stunning photographs.

here the impressive Miscanti and Miñiques Altiplanic Lagoons await us. These beautiful high mountain lagoons, located in the Los Flamencos National Reserve, offer dreamlike panoramic views, surrounded by majestic mountains and habitat for a variety of wildlife. It will be a perfect time to watch birds and immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the region.

Then, we will go to the town of Socaire.

Our next destination will be the fascinating Laguna Chaxa, part of the vast Salar de Atacama. This salty lagoon is home to flamingos and other aquatic birds, attracted by its high salt and nutrient content. Here you will have the opportunity to observe these beautiful birds in their natural habitat and marvel at the uniqueness of the fauna and flora of the place.

The Salar de Atacama, the largest salt flat in Chile and one of the largest in the world, will welcome us with its impressive salt landscapes and wide horizons. We will enjoy a delicious breakfast and lunch in a unique setting, while we explore the fascinating salt formations and marvel at the immensity of the landscape.

At the end of our exploration, we will return to San Pedro de Atacama, where we will drop you off near the municipal parking lot so you can continue exploring the charming town or return to your hotel on your own. If you prefer, our private service can take you directly to your hotel.
