Location

Tierra Atacama, located on a high plateau in the Andes, directly borders the Atacama Desert with its volcanic craters, geothermal springs, geysers, salt flats, and sand dunes. The charming town center of San Pedro de Atacama is about 36 km from the oasis town of Toconao with its pretty bell tower. The journey to the lodge from the El Loa Airport, which is about 100 kilometers away, is quite comfortable.
