#stunningview
Rising over 4,300 meters (14,000 feet) above sea level, the El Tatio Geysers are one of the highest and most awe-inspiring geothermal fields in the world. Located in the heart of northern Chile’s Atacama Desert, this natural wonder is at its most breathtaking at sunrise, when plumes of steam rise from the frozen earth, glowing gold in the early light.
A pre-dawn journey from San Pedro de Atacama brings you to this otherworldly site just in time to witness dozens of geysers, boiling mud pools, and steaming fumaroles come alive. The contrast of cold desert air and hot geothermal activity creates a mystical atmosphere unlike any other.
Besides the spectacular geothermal display, the area is also rich in Andean wildlife, including vicuñas, foxes, and flamingos. For the brave, there’s even a hot spring pool to take a quick dip—perfect for warming up in the crisp morning air.
