Altiplanic Lagoons and Red Stones from San Pedro de Atacama｜Chile

Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

The Piedras Rojas tour includes perhaps the most complete full day tour within the options to visit. We will travel more than 200 km through salt flats, lagoons, towns and highlands. We will begin by visiting the Salar de Chaxa, a lagoon in the middle of the Atacama salt flat characterized by its beautiful landscape and stillness, like a mirror of water in the desert, and by its abundance of birds,
including three species of flamingos.

We will cross through the towns of Toconao and Socaire, towns built with stone of volcanic origin, to then arrive at Los Flamencos National Reserve, where we will visit the altiplanic lagoons, two lagoons over 4,000 meters high at the foot of two large volcanoes. We will continue to finally reach the Salar de Talar or Aguas Calientes III, a salt flat with beautiful contrasts of turquoise and calypso colors, and next to the Piedras Rojas viewpoint, a stone platform that owes its name to its reddish color due to the oxidation of iron. Return to San Pedro de Atacama between 04:30 to 5:00 PM.
