Viewpoints and Natural Wonders

This collection highlights the dramatic geological formations of the Atacama Desert. It features the salt-crusted peaks of the Cordillera de la Sal, the high-altitude Altiplanic lagoons of Miscanti and Miñiques, and the geothermal activity of Volcán Putana. Notable sites include the Monjes de la Pacana—towering volcanic rock pillars—and the iron-rich red stones of Piedras Rojas. Visitors can observe Andean flamingos at Laguna Chaxa and explore the impact history of the 663,000-year-old Monturaqui crater.
