Next up, you’ll visit the Salar Eyes, which are two freshwater round-shaped lagoons in the middle of one of the world’s driest deserts. To further add to your adventure, you’ll visit the impressive Tebinquinche Lagoon where you’ll stop to enjoy a view of the Andes reflected in the saltwater lagoon and, in summer you can observe how water evaporation forms a white mantle of salt.
