d San Pedro Atacama - 27 au 30 avril

In less than an hour, we traveled by mini bus the 47 miles that separate the Chilean-Bolivian border is located 4200m, San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) 2500. The temperature difference is immediately noticeable! San Pedro is a tourist town but has retained much charm. Located in the Salar of Atacama desert in itself of Atacama, the houses are low, in Pisa, ocher or white, the streets in the ground. From the central square of San Pedro was a beautiful view of the volcano Licancabur overlooking the town from its height of almost 6000m. The small white colonial church of San Pedro, the 17th century, has many charm with its exposed wooden cactus.
We went to visit the Moon Valley and Death Valley, located about twenty kilometers from San Pedro. The sets work by erosion over millions of years have been spectacular: jagged rock peaks, mountains stratified layers of different colors, old fields and geothermal geysers, caves and gorges, rocks containing quartz and salt ... and especially the huge sand dunes as the Sahara Desert. At the top of any of them, we see the rising sun and the changing colors of the mountains and Licancabur. The sky was unfortunately sail, the result was not the discount on this one!

On April 30 we took a bus from San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) to return to Salta (Argentina ) : 12 hours by bus Route 52, very well paved. The road winds around mountains and desert throughout 4000. Spectacular landscapes and breathtaking especially around the Salinas Grandes (or we were gone during our car ride around Salta), c is the most spectacular.
In Salta, the first day of May, was taken a bus to Posadas due east Argentina (see later in 16-Argentine/Posadas) - 17 h bus.
