Bolivia – From Laguna Colorada through the Altiplano


005 bolivia alti plano lago colorada

The first night in the highlands wasn’t great – the thin air and freezing cold made for a restless sleep. But as soon as we stood at the shores of Laguna Colorada after breakfast, all was forgotten. The red lake was absolutely stunning – especially from above!

After visiting the lake, we continued our journey across the Altiplano, making several stops in the breathtaking landscape, where we spotted plenty of llamas and flamingos. In the evening, we stayed near the Salar de Uyuni to be perfectly positioned for the sunrise on the vast white salt flats the next morning.

Here are the photos from our second day in Bolivia:
