Next, hike up to “Incahuasi Island” to see tall Cactus and rock formations made of petrified coral ( Make sure to take photographs from a different perspective). Then we will enjoy lunch. We will take time to organize the group and be able to take photos with distorted perspectives, thanks to the soft reflection of the Uyuni Salt Flat.

About Uyuni
Uyuni is a high, dusty town on Bolivia's southern altiplano, the starting point for crossings of the vast white Salar de Uyuni salt flat.
Uyuni stands at about 3,650 metres on the southern Altiplano, a wind-swept railway town of wide streets and low buildings. Its train cemetery, a few kilometres out on the plain, holds rusting steam locomotives and carriages left from the days when British-built railways carried minerals to the Pacific. The town is the main base for visits to the Salar de Uyuni.
Top-ranked sights in Uyuni: Train Cemetery (Cementerio de Trenes), Tunupa Volcano.
