We will start leaving San Pedro de Atacama towards the southeast. We will travel for one hour, in which we will be able to see the color variation of the desert landscape. We will reach the entry of the Baltinache hidden lagoons, where we will be able to use the bathrooms before continuing the tour. We will follow the track that will take us by the seven lagoons that form this wonderful landscape, of which only the last one can be used for bathing. After having visited this tourist attraction in the middle of the Atacama Desert, we will begin our return, passing by the entry facilities to use the bathrooms. In the way back, we will see the sunset in the desert, before arriving to San Pedro de Atacama’s downtown.
