Atacama Overview
Atacama, one of the greatest

Deserts on Earth.


It is extreme in its variety, isolated, beautiful. Its beauty resides in the texture of the land, the starkness of the sky and in how life has found a way to conquer the desert.

Atacama is a lunar landscape in places, lush river canyons in others. In some parts, rain has not touched this parched land for the past three hundred years while summer can bring brilliant rainstorms in the mountains that surround the Alto Atacama Hotel.

Atacama can be vast empty stretches but it is also a place to see life unfolding.

Atacama is the red of the Andes and the glow of the high mountain lakes. We want you to come and experience one of the most pristine places on earth.....the Atacama Desert.
