Termas de Jurasi Atacama

Termas de Jurasi near San Pedro de Atacama are high-altitude calcium springs emerging at around 3,500 meters from the volcanic geology of the driest non-polar desert on Earth, surrounded by colored lagoons, salt flats, and the towering volcanic cones along the Chilean-Bolivian border. The springs form natural pools in a landscape of otherworldly Mars-like terrain where the extraordinary clarity of the night sky has made the Atacama the world's premier astronomical observatory zone. Bathing in geothermally warmed mineral water while the Licancabur volcano dominates the eastern horizon and brine shrimp flamingos color the nearby lagoons pink is an experience of transcendent Atacama grandeur.
