Sunset at Valley of the Moon 🌙🇨🇱

#aprilblooms #chile Experiencing sunset at Valle de la Luna near San Pedro de Atacama is truly unforgettable. As the sun dips below the horizon, the desert landscape transforms into a canvas of fiery reds, purples, and golds, casting dramatic shadows over salt ridges and sand dunes. The panoramic views from the Ckari lookout offer a front-row seat to this natural spectacle, often accompanied by a refreshing cocktail. Tours typically depart around 3:00 PM, allowing time to explore formations like Las Tres Marías and the Amphitheater before the main event. The valley's proximity—just 13 km from town—makes it an easy half-day trip. Whether you're a photographer or a nature enthusiast, the surreal beauty of this Martian-like terrain at sunset is a must-see in the Atacama Desert.
