Your day trip from San Pedro de Atacama begins with hotel pickup. The Piedras Rojas tour includes perhaps the most complete day of the tour options. We'll travel over 200 km through salt flats, lagoons, villages, and plateaus. We'll begin by visiting Salar de Chaxa, a lagoon in the middle of the Atacama salt flat characterized by its beautiful landscape and stillness, like a mirror in the desert, and by its abundance of birdlife, including three species of flamingos.
We will pass through the towns of Toconao and Socaire, towns built with volcanic stone, and then arrive at the Los Flamencos National Reserve, where we will visit the altiplano lagoons, two lagoons over 4,000 meters high at the foot of two large volcanoes.
We'll continue on to finally reach 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 named for its reddish color caused by iron oxidation. We'll return to San Pedro de Atacama. Drop-off will be at the same pickup point (meeting point or hotel). Notes: Please note that some hotels in the city are not included in our pickup itinerary.
You will have to wait for your guide in the hotel lobby.
The tour ends at San Pedro Square.
