Valle de la Luna and Mount Chacaltaya Trip

  • 41 reviews | 734 travellers
    The walk is challenging, but beautiful and fascinating. Our guide Abel was always very attentive, he approached us many times to see if we were all feeling well. He also gave us a lot of information about the two sites. I highly recommend this excursion and the guide Abel.

Valle de la Luna and Mount Chacaltaya Trip

In the morning, we'll pick you up from your hotel in downtown La Paz before setting off for Mount Chacaltaya. After crossing the stunning Bolivian altiplano for around two hours, we will arrive at the base camp of the mountain.

Once there, we will take a short 650-foot hike up to the summit. At the top, you will enjoy one of the best panoramic views in all of Bolivia, where snow-capped peaks contrast with the typical Bolivian brown landscapes. After capturing this unforgettable scene on camera, we will descend from Chacaltaya and head the famous (Valle de la Luna) Valley of the Moon.

When we arrive, we will explore this idyllic area on foot. Our walk here will be gentle as the altitude is low compared to other locations in Bolivia. Our guide will tell us the origin of these rock formations and the fascinating story behind how this area earned its name.

Our trip to Valley of the Moon and Mount Chacaltaya finishes by returning to La Paz in midafternoon, leaving you at the Plaza de San Francisco.
