Description

We will pick you up from your hotel in the morning to begin the trip out of the city. The route to Piedras Rojas and Lagunas Altiplanicas will take us through important tourist places within the Atacama Desert. To get to the Piedras Rojas lagoon, or Aguas Calientes salt flat as it is also known, we will have to climb in our vehicle to 3800 meters of altitude and walk for 1 hour and 15 minutes, to observe these copper-colored rocks, as well as like the surrounding lagoons and salt flats. Later, we will move to the sector of the Miscanti and Miñiques highland lagoons, where our guide will give us some explanations regarding the flora and fauna that inhabit the place. Likewise, we will make a stop at the Chaxa lagoon, where you can see flamingos. Likewise, we will pass through Socaire and the Tropic of Capricorn, where we will make a brief stop to take photographs. Then, we will return to San Pedro de Atacama to finish our tour.
