Description

Description

Explore the Salar de Atacama, Chile’s largest salt flat, by visiting its most emblematic lagoons. You’ll start at Cejar Lagoon and Laguna Piedra, where the vegetation highlights the water’s turquoise tones and the volcanoes on the horizon. At Laguna Piedra, you’ll enjoy a floating swim thanks to the high salinity, an experience similar to the Dead Sea. The area has changing rooms and showers so you can rinse off and change comfortably.


Then you’ll continue to the Ojos del Salar, two deep freshwater pools in the middle of the desert, perfect for photos. You’ll finish at Laguna Tebinquinche, walking an easy trail to take in the striking contrast between the sky, the desert, and the white salt crust, a perfect finale for your Atacama photo collection.
