Explore Piedras Rojas (Red Rocks)

San Pedro de Atacama, Chile

Description

Without a doubt the most captivating scenery I have ever beheld. Truly breathtaking.

This location is a hidden gem in the desert of the Atacama in Chile. If you are in this region, skipping this tour will be the biggest mistake you make. Be warned however, that the altitude reaches 4500 m and it is quite cold, so bundle up! The drive to get to piedras rojas is very beautiful as well so do not sleep on your way there! This tour is best done in conjunction with the tour of Lagunas Altiplanacas(Also breathtaking), so be sure to find a tour company that will take you to both!

Hike through Valle de la Luna

There are many tours from San Pedro de Atacama that will take you around Valle de la Luna and Valle de la Muerta, or you can enter the park on your own. You are required to pay an entrance fee both on the tours and when you go alone, but it is 100% worth it! The whole area is strikingly strange and beautiful so DO NOT forget your camera...and snacks.
