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.

Hidden Gems

San Pedro de Atacama’s secluded sites range from the hypersaline Cejar Lagoon, where high salt concentrations allow for effortless floating, to the 12th-century stone fortifications of Pukará de Quitor. The Quebrada de Jerez provides a rare desert oasis with a wooded canyon and swimming pools. Geological exploration continues in Devils Canyon, known for its winding rock formations and trails suitable for biking or horse riding. In the village of Toconao, the central plaza features a historic bell tower built from local volcanic stone.
