Home to the word’s driest desert, the Atamacama, Norte Grande is one of Chile’s most visited and fascinating regions.
The charming adobe town of San Pedro de Atacama is the perfect base from which to explore El Tatio Geyser field and its hundreds of gassy fumaroles, watch flamingos at the Chaxa Lagoon on Atacama’s salt flats or discover rare lunar landscape at the Moon Valley.
There is more than desert in Norte Grande, up north, the Parque Nacional Lauca offers spectacular scenery with snow-capped volcanoes, pristine water lakes, remote hot springs and wild vicuña.
Surf and beach lovers find their own paradise on the coastal cities of Iquique or Arica, the perfect spot to relax before heading to your next adventure.
