Overlooking the largest Salt flat on earth
Where better to experience the extraordinary, endless expanse of the Uyuni Salt Flat than at Explora’s Uyuni Lodge. In a quiet location on the northern edge of the Salt Flats, away from the busier tourist route in the south, the lodge’s elevated position offers spectacular views of the Salar de Uyuni from every corner.
Designed by award-winning Chilean architect Max Núñez, the eight bedroom lodge strikes the perfect balance between comfort and simplicity. Each room has been carefully decorated to provide a warm and comfortable atmosphere and has been built using local woods and textiles with the added comfort of en suite bathrooms. The main lodge has a homely feel and guests are looked after by staff employed from the local community, part of Explora’s efforts to minimise their environmental impact but also support people in the area.
During your stay you will have your own driver, guide and 4×4 to take you on a variety of explorations. You can hike up the impressive slopes of Tunupa Volcano, visit some of the nearby communities and caves at San Pedro de Quemez or mountain bike out onto the vast expanse in front of the lodge (where Explora can setup a spot for lunch). End the day with a spectacular sundowner on the Salt Flats and marvel at the stunning night skies above.
