Atacama Desert Antofagasta, Chile Last Updated: 07/22/2026 |
| The Atacama Desert is a desert plateau located on the Pacific coast of South America, north of Chile. Stretching a 1,600 km strip of land west of the Andes Mountains, it covers an area of 105,000 km², and increases to 128,000 km² if the barren slopes of the lower Andes are included. | |
| Climb to over 4,000 meters above sea level in the Andes to discover small villages that still retain their traditional customs amidst breathtaking, photographic scenery. Visit San Pedro de Atacama and explore some of the world's most unique landscapes. Salt flats, geysers, and turquoise lagoons are just some of the places that will amaze you. Embark on a journey through the stars. Learn more about the stars and constellations at one of the many astronomical observatories in northern Chile. | |
