About San Pedro de Atacama
San Pedro is a dust-blown oasis village where adobe buildings shelter from the Atacama's fury, a backpacker hub and trekking base surrounded by some of Earth's most otherworldly landscapes. Geothermal hot springs bubble from volcanic rock, altiplano lakes shimmer at 14,000 feet, and every sunrise reveals a planet-sized sky.
