    Lagunas Altiplanicas

    Next step is the dual lakes of Miscanti and Miñiques. The lakes are overlooked by their respective namesake volcanoes. At one point, the lakes were connected until a lava flow from the Miñiques volcano split them apart. Miscanti, which has a heart shape, is larger than its counterpart. Both lakes have a vibrant blue color. On the shores of the lakes, we were able to see herds of llama and vicuña.
