Tour Information

We will travel through a hidden and longitudinal pre-Andean valley that will connect the ancestral provinces and mountain ranges of Elqui and Limari to discover the origins of an impressive geological event that shaped Río Hurtado and its renowned San Pedro de Pichasca Natural Monument. This worldwide paleontological, geological and archaeological treasure stands out for being the first place in Chile where dinosaur remains appear. The site is surprising due to the presence of petrified Jurassic flora and fauna and human refuges occupied since the ice age, where some of the oldest agricultural practices on the continent are recorded.
