We will pick you up in Arequipa (Historic Centre) between 6:00 and 6:30 in the morning to begin the trip to the Salinas Lagoon, located on the border of the Salinas and Aguada Blanca National Reserve. During the trip we will make a stop in Chiguata, a typical town in the area, to have a continental breakfast consisting of juice, mate or coffee, cereals and toast.

We will go into nature to discover the flora and fauna of the Arequipa region surrounding the Salinas Lagoon.

We will only have to look up to discover that we are on the slopes of the Misti volcano. Did you know that it is one of the 10 active volcanoes in the area?

During the trip we will see an Andean forest made up of small trees and bushes. In this area they call them queñuales!

Finally we will arrive at the Salinas Lagoon. If it is dry, it will greet us with a snow-white colour. And if there is water, we can go to the shore to see the large amount of salt that accumulates. Did you know that it is the only lagoon where you can see three types of flamingos? In addition, alpacas and llamas will accompany us during our walk around the lagoon.

We can explore the surroundings of the lagoon and the area of the Lojén volcano, as well as some hot springs. After the walk, we will leave you free time for lunch and then we will return to Arequipa at around 4:30 p.m.
