Salar de Atacama
Beste Besuchszeit
April to November brings clear weather and cool temperatures for long hikes. The sunrise paints the crystals pink and orange and is worth an early morning.
Budgettipps
Each sub-area in the reserve costs between 3,000 and 5,000 pesos, so decide which lagoons you want to see and add it up before you go. Buy water and snacks in town in advance, since the kiosks by the lagoons charge a hefty markup.

Schnelle Fakten: Fast 3.000 Quadratkilometer weißer Salzkristall leuchten hier, einer der salzigsten Orte des Planeten. Unter der Oberfläche liegt eine der reichsten Lithiumquellen der Welt, während drei Flamingoarten in den Lagunen rundherum gedeihen.
Highlights: Das Salz bildet perfekte hexagonale Rissmuster, die unter den Schuhen knirschen, wie riesiges Porzellan, das in der Sonne getrocknet ist. Wenn die Hitze steigt, lässt die Spiegelung der Kristalle die Berge rundherum zu schweben scheinen, und der Klang deiner Schritte hallt seltsam weit über die Fläche.
Insidertipps
- Wear sunglasses and a hat even in cloudy weather, the white surface reflects sunlight brutally.
- Book a morning tour that starts before eight o'clock to reach the lagoon before the tourist buses arrive.
- Wear old shoes or sandals, the salt crumbles new leather and sticks to the soles.
- Expect around four hours of transport round trip from the villages, and be prepared for sudden weather changes.
