Magical Andes Photography

ATACAMA & THE FAR NORTH

Chile's northern regions contain some of the country's wildest scenery. The area's main feature is the Atacama desert, the world's driest; and there is spectacular volcanic and altiplano scenery to be discovered in the high altitude regions along the Bolivian border. Most towns are found along the coast where fishing is a major industry, and the desert is also noted for its geoglyphs and remains of nitrate mining towns.

Parinacota volcano and Lake Chungará

A rare windless day reflects the perfectly conical Parinacota volcano (6330m / 20,765ft) in the blue waters of Lake Chungará, Lauca National Park. The lake itself is at an altitude of some 4600m / 15,100ft and is one of the largest lakes found at that height anywhere in the world.
