Walk on Salar de uyuni

Located in southwestern Bolivia, this expansive salt lake stretches out to more than 10,500 square kilometres. The remnants of a prehistoric body of water that dried up, exploring this Bolivian salt lake is a must for every traveler. Walk across the barren plain to experience one of the most incredible natural landscapes in the world. Drive across to Incahuasi Island, located in the middle of the lake, to see the giant cacti that grow on this otherwise-barren part of the world. Donāt forget to snap a selfie and play with the perspective of this salty desert.
