Salar de Uyuni Trip – Photo Tour Part 1

There’s a lot of driving, a lot of altitude but expect to see some mind blowing scenery along the way.

The trip starts in Tupiza, very quickly winding you way up into the rocky mountains.

First stop was in a field of llamas for some lunch.

End of the first was spent in a very small but very high (4000m) and very cold village with a game of volleyball.

    • About Ben’s Backpacking Travel Blog

      The main aim of this travel blog is to share travel experiences and hopefully inspire others to travel. When researching my own travels I always focus on the photos and with that in mind I've tried to place an emphasis on travel photos of my favourite destinations. I've also tried to focus on those places to visit and things to do that are slightly off the beaten track of the normal backpacking trip.

      My blog covers past experiences backpacking around the world and my current travels where so far I've been lucky enough to travel in the South Pacific, Australasia, South East Asia, Europe, North America and South America.
