Miscanti Lagoon

S 23°44.299', W 67°47.612'
2017-03-26
Our rating: 7.60
Overall rating:
The Miscanti Lagoon is a very beautiful lake in the Atacama Desert, located at an altitude of about 4200 meters. Nearby there is a second lake, a smaller one - Laguna Miniques. They are called the Lagunas Altiplanicas.

Together with several snow-white volcanoes in the background, the lake forms a fabulous landscape, which is worth seeing.

Most of the way (110 km) passes along a good road 23. The last section is unpaved (6 km), but passable even for small cars. Lakes are located on the high altitude where can be cold and windy, don't forget warm dress, take water and food.
