Framed by the ochre, cactus-covered hillsides of its semi-desert surroundings, the green floor of this river-watered valley thrives with papaya, figs, chirimoya (custard fruit), apricots, peaches, and especially grapes. From these last is created the \u2018Pisco\u2019 \u2013 Chile\u2019s famous grape brandy \u2013 for which the valley is particularly famous, and during a leisurely stopover at a distillery you\u2019ll learn about the production process and enjoy a taste or two. The modest valley town of Vicu\u00f1a hosts a fine museum dedicated to Chile\u2019s Nobel Prize-winning poet Gabriela Mistral, which you\u2019ll visit before taking lunch. The region\u2019s uniquely dry, crystal-clear skies make it ideal for astronomy, with many important observatories located on nearby mountains; thus, your excursion will head upward during the evening. After a short stop for coffee at one of the viewpoints along the way, you\u2019ll arrive at Mamalluca Observatory, whose 12-inch-diameter telescope will furnish an unforgettable view of the stars. Late in the evening, you will make the drive back down the valley to your hotel in La Serena.<br \/>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travel Type: Nature Duration: 1 Day<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":98,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Elquital und Observatorium Mamalluca Elqui Valley and Mamalluca Observatory - travelArt","description":"Elqui Valley Mamalluca Observatory Art der Reise: Natur Dauer: 1 Tag Tourverlauf Dieser Ganztagesausflug f\u00fchrt Sie in das Elqui-Tal, ein schmaler, fruchtbarer S"},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2176","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2176","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2176"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2176\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/98"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chile-reise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2176"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
