Moon Valley Tour
1 stop

Valle De La Luna
15:30 to 20:30: Tour to Valle de la Luna. We will start the tour departing from the center of San Pedro de Atacama towards the Cordillera de la Sal in the Atacama Desert, the driest place on earth, in the direction of one of its most picturesque points: the Moon Valley. The names already give a clear clue to the landscape, where rock formations modeled by erosion, salt mantles and views that will make you feel like on another planet reign. We will cross the valley transversely, visiting its famous rock formations: the Three Marias, the Canyon, the Amphitheater and the Coyote Stone. To finish the tour, we will enjoy the sunset from a natural viewpoint, where you can see how the desert changes color, with large volcanoes on the horizon, offering a show that will leave you speechless.

Laguna Cejar
We will visit a series of lagoons inside the Salar de Atacama, the largest salt flat in Chile. We will first visit the Ojos del Salar, two deep wells of fresh water in the middle of the desert, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim. Then we will visit the Tebinquinche Lagoon, where we will walk along its path to appreciate the magnificent views, where the sky merges with the desert and the whiteness of the salt. The tour continues in the famous Laguna Cejar and Laguna Piedra, surrounded by green and yellow grass that highlights the color of the water, contemplating a unique landscape of turquoise waters and volcanoes. In the latter we can enjoy a bath with which we will experience the floating effect, similar to that of the Dead Sea. To end the day, we will enjoy an appetizer watching the sunset with a view of these lagoons. Bathing is only allowed in Laguna Piedra and Ojos del Salar.

We will pick you up at your hotel to go to the place where we will make this Astronomical Tour under one of the best skies in the world for the practice of astronomy. The day will be divided into three stages. One corresponds to the conversation in which we will learn basic concepts of astronomy. In another stage, we will look at the sky with the naked eye to learn to identify the cardinal points and some zodiacal constellations, as well as information about the Andean worldview. The last stage includes observation through telescopes and binoculars in the open field, so that we can identify the objects that are visible at the time we carry out the activity. These include planets, binary stars, globular and open clusters, and others. In addition, we will take astrophotography before returning to San Pedro de Atacama.
