The water that brings life to the desert is really impressive, in the middle of the Atacama desert, from an immense altitude we can still find the Quepiaco River. Located in the Bofedal region of Quepiaco the water of this lagoon provides an impressive ecosystem full of life and color.

An immensity of water in front of you is truly a paradise and wilderness, and you will surely have this image in your mind for the rest of your life!

And why the name “Laguna Diamante” you will know yourself when you are facing these crystal clear waters.

Even before reaching the Salar de Tara you will pass the monks, known as guardians of La Pakana, are two giant stone pillars built vertically with a structure very similar to Easter Island moais. They were named after it because the central part of the monument assimilated with the fine silhouettes of the monks.

The Blancos monks reveal a unique artistic trace of nature by demonstrating their tone amidst the landscapes. These are the formation carved by volcanic ash and next to them the famous cathedrals carved by the erosion of wind and water over thousands of years.

The horizon seems endless when you reach the final destination, the landscape is simply stunning, flamingos and the colorful colors of Atacama’s peculiar flora are everywhere, not to mention that if we look to the side we can admire the lush cathedrals. You will lose your breath, and it will not be because of altitude, but because of emotion.
