Valle de Elqui 🔭

Valley famous for observatories, astronomy, and Chilean pisco.

Buses leave often from the parking lot across from the Lider (Terminal Punta Choros, Elqui, Vicuña).

As of August 2021 it costs 3,500 pesos.

Follow Calle Baquedano, past Hostal Triskel until the very end of the road. Eventually you will come to a dirt road which you will follow up about three switchbacks and then stay to the right on along the road. Follow the road for a little while longer and keep your eyes open for a dirt path that breaks off the road to the left. It may not look like much, but you can follow that up a ways and then take the spine of the hill as far up as you’d like to go.
