Salar de Uyuni
The Salar de Uyuni is the worlds largest salt lake (12,000km2) and unique in the fact that much of it´s surface is covered by pure white salt not mud and salt as many other salt lakes (salars).
The surface is as hard as concrete and in some places ideal for cycling, in others it´s not so good as we were to find out. At least it was flat.
Food was scarce, everything, including water had to be carried with us. Our diet consisted of crackers with a variety of toppings, our favorite being jam.
The biggest sky we´ve ever seen. The volcanoes in the distance mark the Chilean border about 80 km away.
At the time we thought this beautiful campsite was on Inca Wasi (Isla de Pescadores) but it´s really easy to get disorientated on the salar and due to a compass malfunction we´re not really sure where this was, or even where we were for the next couple of days!
