Exploration Path
Puri's overland exploration follows the Vilama and Puritama Rivers, vital lifelines in the Atacama Desert. Stops at scenic viewpoints lead to a short hike into the Puritama Canyon, revealing unique vegetation and ancient human traces, and ending with a relaxing dip in our exclusive pools at the Puritama Hot Springs.
As if sliced off from the desert’s mantle, the ravines in this zone were created over millions of years by the forces of water and wind. Plunging into the abyss, they are sculptures that only time could shape.
