In this expedition, we will visit the village of Toconao (Kunza: Lost Corner) which is charming for its simplicity, the calmness of its people, special climate, beautiful architecture and crafts. We will visit the marginal area of the Salar de Atacama known as Laguna Chaxa located in the Sector Soncor, National Reserve Los Flamencos. Afterwards, we will head towards the Southeast (Andes Mountain Range) to set up camp in a highland village named Socaire, where we will visit its church and learn about its agriculture. Once we are settled in the Andes range, we will head to approximately 4,200 m above sea level to visit Lagunas Miscanti and Meñiques, part of the National Reserve Los Flamencos, characterized by volcanoes and mountainous landscapes such as Miscanti Hill and Meñiques volcano. There, we will find species such as the Horned Tagua, Sma ll Parinas, Caití, Baird Sandpiper, Puna Plover, Juarjual Duck and Guallata. The flora is mainly composed of Llareta and Paja Brava. Both lagoons are formed by underground water from melting glaciers. Continuing along the foothills of the Southern Andes, we will head to the Salar de Talar, known as Piedras Rojas, a place where the rocks are subject to natural oxidation and weathering, causing the colors to lose intensity in the Andes.
