San Pedro de Atacama: Absolute Must-Sees

Located in the high-altitude Atacama Desert, San Pedro de Atacama serves as a base for exploring the diverse geology of northern Chile. The region features the Cordillera de La Sal's jagged salt formations, the high-salinity waters of the Cejar and Baltinache lagoons, and the volcanic silhouettes of Licancabur. Archaeological sites like Pukará de Quitor provide insight into pre-Columbian fortification, while the Chaxa and Tebenquiche lagoons offer habitats for Andean flamingos within the Los Flamencos National Reserve.
