We present two of travelArt’s popular excursions <\/strong> with hikes near San Pedro de Atacama.<\/p>\n

Half-day excursion Guatin Valley and Gatchi<\/h3>\n

\"Valle
\n\"GuatinTwo rivers converge in the Guatin Valley, one coming from the thermal springs of Puritama and carrying earth and minerals in its warm waters, while the other, the Purifica River, comes from the Andes. This amazing mixture of hot spring water and clear snowmelt produces a unique ecosystem in the Guatin canyon, popularly known as “Cactus Valley”. A hike in this valley to Gatchi will take you past waterfalls, rocks and giant candelabra cacti, some of which are up to 500 years old.<\/p>\n

Half-day excursion Quebrada del Diablo<\/h3>\n

\"\"The Quebrada del Diablo (“Devil’s Gorge”) impresses with its interesting rock formations that form a kind of labyrinth in the Cordillera de la Sal (“Salt Mountains”). Go on a discovery tour among the rocks and enjoy this wonder of nature. A river nearby and the vegetation form a beautiful contrast to the dry walls of the Cordillera de la Sal.<\/p>\n
