Puritama River Gorge Hiking Tour
We will meet at unit 2, 429B Tocopilla Street in San Pedro de Atacama at the scheduled time to travel to the valley of the Puritama River. The journey of 45 kilometres (27 miles) will be by bus to the hike's starting point.
The riverbed features multiple waterfalls and natural pools, some with hydrothermal properties. Erosion creates high walls along the river, forming a canyon.
We will hike along the Puritama River gorge for half an hour, following the path of the Atacameño people who have utilized these therapeutic waters for centuries. During our hike, we will observe the unique flora and fauna of the Chilean altiplano.
At the route's end, a thermal pool with crystalline waters will be available, allowing for two hours of free time to relax.
We will then take the bus back to San Pedro de Atacama, arriving at the small central square four hours after departure.
