Eduardo Avaroa Reserve

Altiplano lagoons (including the blood-red Laguna Colorada), geysers, and three flamingo species near the Chilean border.

South of Uyuni, the altiplano climbs into a high, otherworldly desert of coloured lagoons — the blood-red Laguna Colorada and mineral-green Laguna Verde — plus steaming geysers, hot springs, and three species of flamingo.

It’s remote, brutally high (up to ~5,000 m), and unforgettable — the wild crossing toward Chile.
