Description
Who could have imagined that in a desert it is possible to find so much water and such beautiful places?
The region of Hiddens Laggons (Lagunas Escondidas) de Baltinache is a true oasis. A majestic setting rich in colors, sensations and of course – water. Altogether there are seven incredibly transparent saltwater lagoons.
Needless to say, it is practically impossible to sink there, as the salinity of the water is very high.
The Hidden Lagoons are located at an altitude of 2,400 meters and temperatures range from 5ºC to 30ºC.
The route is all demarcated by stones, the objective is to preserve open nature, so that other people can also enjoy the beauties of the place. Nothing more fair, right?

Care is everything!!
I would like to thank all the support, guidance and support provided by Giovanna in all stages of our journey.
In an extreme climate place like Atacama, where the schedule can change at any time due to the weather, the readiness with which she attended us and reprogrammed the tours as many times as was necessary was fundamental to make the most of the trip!
Thank you Giovanna and the entire FullTour team. You guys were amazing!

Hidden lagoons of Baltinache
The stretch of road to get from the center of San Pedro to Baltinache is with many wells, so much so that it was not allowed to go by rental car, but when we arrived at the place it was a delight to be able to be in that place.

Hola, muchas gracias por su comentario, realmente el camino que lleva a las Lagunas Escondidas de Baltinache es algo complejo, porque tiene un trayecto de calamina, con surcos que dificultan un poco el transito, por eso es recomendable ir con agencia de turismo que conocen la región y el camino.
Para nosotros fue un placer llevarlos hasta ese lugar maravilloso y escondido en medio del desierto, muchas gracias por la confianza depositada en nuestro equipo.

In the middle of the desert there is a lake of water at 18 degrees Celsius, that is wonderful. I loved the experience.

San Pedro de Atacama
I was delighted with the Full Tour Service, especially Amanda Gallao, who helped me plan the trip from the start, attending me at all times and giving me all the necessary tips and details to make the most of my time in San Pedro. The van is very comfortable, I traveled to almost all the turs of San Pedro and fell in love, it is beautiful. The service was very good from the guides, to the food and snacks they offer. Very satisfied and thank you very much!

Hidden lagoons of Baltinache
It was a wonderful experience. Lacunae that leave hallucinating and overcome all reality, but all that would not have been possible without the guidance of Mauricio and the care of Joaquin who operated the van. You could see Mauritius’ finished knowledge of each part we visited and for leaving no detail to chance.
