The trip continues on with a crossing of “Uyuni Salt Lake” to Uyuni town where people are taken onward toward the “Eduardo Abaroa National Park”.

Here, they will visit the following places which have the next characteristics:

• Cañapa/Hedionda Lagoons:
  • What: Two high‑altitude saline lagoons (Laguna Cañapa and Laguna Hedionda) known for flamingos (Andean & James’s), other Andean birdlife, and striking mineral-colored waters.
  • Highlights: Flamingo colonies, shallow pink/greenish hues, volcanic and desert backdrop.
  • Altitude/conditions: ~4,200–4,300 m (thin air, cold nights).
  • Best time: Oct–Mar (breeding/greater flamingo activity; summer has milder weather).
  • Tip: Bring warm layers, sunscreen, binoculars, and allow time to acclimatize.
• Siloli Desert
  • What: High Andean desert plain with sparse vegetation, dramatic rock formations, and wide, otherworldly landscapes.
  • Highlights: Panoramic vistas, great photography at sunrise/sunset, dunes and salt- & volcanic-derived soils.
  • Altitude: ~4,600 m at nearby high points.
  • Tip: Strong sun and wind possible—sunglasses, windproof jacket, and water recommended.
• Stone Tree
  • What: Iconic wind-eroded rock formation shaped like a tree, standing isolated on the Siloli Desert plateau.
  • Highlights: Iconic photo spot, surreal silhouette against sky, dramatic erosion patterns.
  • Tip: Visit at golden hour for best light; watch footing on loose ground.
• Red Lagoon (Laguna Colorada)
  • What: Shallow, mineral-rich lake with intense reddish coloration caused by algae and sediments; famous for large flocks of flamingos.
  • Highlights: Deep red water, white borax islands, flamingos (James’s and Andean), spectacular contrast with mountains.
  • Altitude/conditions: ~4,278 m; strong UV, cold temperatures.
  • Best time: Oct–Mar for best flamingo activity and more comfortable weather.
  • Tip: Respect wildlife distances, bring layered clothing and a good camera.
• Geysers (Morning Sun)
  • What: Geothermal field of fumaroles, boiling mud pools and geyser vents producing steam and colorful mineral deposits.
  • Highlights: Bubbling mud pots, strong steam plumes, sulfur smells, vivid yellow/orange mineral terraces.
  • Safety: Stay on marked paths; ground can be unstable and very hot.
  • Tip: Early morning is common for tours (dramatic steam in cold air); bring warm clothing and avoid prolonged exposure to sulfur.
• “Polques” Hot Springs
  • What: Natural hot springs (termas) near the Reserva where visitors can soak in warm mineral waters after visits to cold highlands.
  • Highlights: Warm relaxation, scenic plateau views, traditional local use.
  • Tip: Check local access (some are small/primitive and seasonal), bring a towel and dry clothes; watch for basic facilities.

 Altitude sickness is a real risk—acclimatize, hydrate, avoid heavy exertion on arrival, consider altitude medication if advised by a doctor.

Weather is harsh and changeable: strong sun by day, freezing nights; layers are essential.

Most visits are part of multi-day 4×4 tours from Uyuni; follow guides’ advice and park regulations to protect wildlife and fragile landscapes.
