3 DAYS / 2 NIGHTS – SALAR DE UYUNI AND LAKES

Day 1: Departing from Uyuni, we visit the train cemetery, five minutes from the city. Next is the village of Colchani, where you can see how salt is processed, browse arts and crafts shops, and visit a small salt museum. Then we enter the Salar de Uyuni to see the salt mounds and the "eyes of the salar," and visit the Playa Blanca Salt Hotel (the first salt hotel, now a museum). We continue to Incahuasi Island to admire the giant cacti and hike to the summit for a view of the whole Salar de Uyuni. Finally, we continue to the village of Villa Candelaria or San Juan for the night.

Day 2: After breakfast, we drive to the viewpoint of the dormant Ollagüe Volcano, passing through the Salar de Chiguana. We then visit the small lakes of Cañapa, Hedionda, Honda and Chiarkota, and continue to the Siloli Desert to see the Stone Tree. Finally, we visit Laguna Colorada (entering Eduardo Avaroa National Park) and spend the night in rustic accommodation in Polques or Huaylljara.

Day 3: After breakfast, we visit the geysers, the hot springs, the Salvador Dalí Desert, and Laguna Verde and Laguna Blanca at the foot of the Licancabur Volcano (Eduardo Avaroa National Park). On the way back to Uyuni, we visit the Valle de Rocas and the mining town of San Cristóbal.
