Nayara Alto Atacama By World Journeys

Nayara Alto Atacama By World Journeys

Nayara Alto Atacama is the only lodge in the San Pedro region totally enveloped by natural surroundings. Located in the lush Catarpe Valley of the Salt Mountain Range, the design was influenced by local village architecture, blending seamlessly into its environment and appearing as a part of the terracotta-colored ridge that rises behind it. The setting, the sweeping views, the tranquility and silence, and the hotel’s wonderful outdoor lounge spaces make the Nayara Alto Atacama a destination unto itself. Environmental sustainability and a strong connection with the local culture have put the Nayara Alto Atacama in a category of its own, as has its “Andescape” concept of decorative flora and stable of friendly llamas and alpacas, local cuisine, and Leave No Trace-schooled guides. Veronica Poblete, creator of Andescape, is a Paris-trained landscape designer and botanist, and ex-Harvard lecturer who has developed this new concept using local flora and ancient agricultural techniques.

The Nayara Alto Atacama seeks to open a traveller’s eyes, to explore, to feel, to connect, and to return revitalized and changed by a truly authentic experience one will never forget. Rather than simply taking photos as a passive traveller, Nayara Alto Atacama encourages guests to get off the beaten track, interact with the local indigenous culture and explore the desert’s varied and eerily beautiful landscapes by foot or bike. Geysers, hot springs, volcano climbs, mountain biking through desert canyons, and exploring ancient Incan ruins and petroglyphs are just a few of the adventurous excursions offered, always led by highly trained local guides.
