Impressive show, albeit with very cold (temperatures below zero) and 4321 meters above sea level.
To appreciate this wonder of nature, we need to arrive at the place before the five o'clock.
It is a geothermal field linked to Volcano Tatio. The geysers originate when they come into contact with a river frozen underground hot rocks.
In this place, the water in the form of steam, comes to the surface through fissures in the earth's crust, reaching a temperature of 85 º C, which reveals an impressive spectacle to ascend violent flows of steam that rise up to 10 metres tall.
Way back in the geysers, we stopped in Machuca, Acatameño village of 4000 meters high, devoted to grazing and agriculture.
En route we saw flamingos and vizcachas (giant rodents)
