The deserts and high plains of northern Chile and Argentina are a phenomenal place to practice our favorite kind of travel—experiencing the real beauty of natural places and wandering down the solitary tracks in the sand. An Antofaya road trip will take you to beautiful remote places that most locals have never even heard of. We stop whenever there is something nice to see or do—when you feel like hiking a volcano, crossing a salt flat or taking a picture of a dust devil on the horizon or animals grazing on the slope. With Antofaya, you have the best of both worlds—the flexibility of traveling on your own and the inside scoop of local expertise. |

6440m Antofalla - The Volcano Expedition
Puna de Atacama, Argentina
March 2012 |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
| |
Antofalla volcano at 6,440m (21,129ft) is one of the largest volcanoes on the planet. Yet hardly climbed. The reason is simple. It is so remote that getting to its base is an expedition on its own rights. Located in the high Andes at the very hart of Argentinian Puna de Atacama plateau - a place not from this world. A place so barren yet full of amazing colors and surreal vistas. A place where space and horizon take new meanings. To join our attempt to climb volcano Antofalla please contact us. |

The Andean Altiplano is one of the biggest high mountain plateaus in the world, second only to Tibet's. It is surrounded by Andean ranges with enormous peaks of active volcanoes reaching up to more than 6,000m (20,000ft) above sea level and towering over the plateau, which itself lies at 4,000m (13,000ft) elevation. The air is thin at this altitude and the climate is arid, cold and windswept. >> |

The Puna de Atacama is a high-altitude plateau of approximately 4,000 to 4,600 meters (11,000 to 13,000 feet) elevation that lies between ranges of the Andean cordillera in Northwestern Argentina. This magnificently beautiful region is virtually unknown to foreign tourists and little known even to Argentine natives. The Puna is a place of desolate, stunning, and strange landscapes. >> |
