Itinerary

  1. Dare to walk when the desert awakens. Live a night trek in the Salt Range, minutes from San Pedro de Atacama, where sunset turns on the colors and night reveals the wilder side of the Atacama Desert. The adventure begins at sunset. We proceed through unique karst formations of the Salt Range, under moonlight or a totally dark sky. With a full moon, the relief shines; without it, shadows and silence create an intense and enveloping atmosphere. The trail alternates ups and downs on firm ground, with medium demand, ideal for those who seek excitement without being experts. Along the way we pause to observe the stars with the naked eye, in one of the cleanest skies on the planet. Nature, adrenaline and stars: a night to get out of the ordinary and take the desert on your skin.

About San Pedro de Atacama

San Pedro de Atacama is an adobe oasis town in northern Chile, ringed by salt flats, volcanoes, geysers and some of the driest desert on earth.

San Pedro de Atacama is a village of low whitewashed adobe houses and dusty streets in an oasis of the Atacama Desert, at about 2,400 metres. Its adobe church goes back to the 17th century and has a roof of cactus wood, and the small Museo Arqueológico Gustavo Le Paige displays mummies and pottery from the desert's early peoples. The cone of Licancabur volcano stands over the town to the east.

Top-ranked sights in San Pedro de Atacama: El Tatio Geysers, Moon Valley (Valle de la Luna), Chaxa Lagoon (Laguna Chaxa).
