Valley of the Moon

When Esteban arrived we hired some bikes and went to an indigenous fortification, offering fantastic views over the desert, the hills, the sand dunes and oases that make up the Atacama Basin. The follow day we cycled to the Valley of the Moon (Valle de la Luna) and took in some of the most spectacular lunar scenery.

Here are the photos of both trips.
