Geysers del Tatio
Paras aika vierailla
Dawn between 06.00 and 08.00 gives the clearest steam columns when cold air meets boiling water, and the morning sun colors the mountains red. Winter's clear mornings have the best visibility, but expect below-freezing temperatures and bring every warm piece of clothing you own.
Budjettivinkit
The entrance fee is around 11,000 Chilean pesos for foreign visitors and is paid at the gate. Rent your own car and go at dawn instead of booking an expensive group safari. All operators run the same route, so compare prices before you choose.
Suositellaan
Photography enthusiasts, Adventurers, Nature lovers, Early birds

Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Kenttä sijaitsee 4 320 metrin korkeudessa, joten kiehuva vesi suihkuaa jo 86 asteessa ohuessa ilmassa. Noin 80 aktiivista geysiiriä ehtii näyttäytyä aamuhämärän tunteina ennen kuin aurinko lämmittää ja höyry katoaa.
Kohokohdat: Nimi tatio tarkoittaa "vaaria" kunzan kielellä, jonka kieltä täällä asunut kansa puhui kauan ennen inkojen tuloa. Aamunkoitteessa höyrysuihkut yltävät kolmen metrin korkeuteen jääkylmässä ilmassa, mutta jo tunnin kuluttua kenttä on lähes hiljaa.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- Dress in layers, because the temperature hovers near zero even though the ground is boiling all around you.
- Never jump into any pool. The water is over 80 degrees and has caused serious injuries in the past.
- Sit at the edge of the big pools and let the steam become your own natural sauna, a local favorite that few tourists know about.
- Walk toward the eastern part of the field to get away from the crowds that gather at the entrance.
