Exploration Path
We horseback ride to the Catarpe Valley through a road immersed in the oasis, where we will be able to trot and gallop before climbing up a ledge in the Salt Mountain Range. On our return to Explora, we ride around the ledge with panoramic views of the three mountain ranges and descend through dunes to the Mars Valley.
For experienced and advanced riders only. This exploration is only available for advanced riders who have mastered rising trot and canter over uneven terrain in open spaces and on all types of horses. A test in the hotel is required before going out into the desert.
*Temporarily unavailable. Consult other exploration options with your Explora guide at the destination.
Geometric and seemingly infinite, the Atacama salt flat abruptly interrupts the desert’s chromatic continuum.
