Las Salinas Grandes

The Salinas Grandes is a large salt flat in central-northern Argentina, spanning the borders of four provinces. The salt flat is a vast territory of 200,000 hectares, with a unique landscape of white salt and a horizon that seems to stretch on forever. The area is home to a variety of flora and fauna, including suris, flamencos, gatos de monte, and lampalaguas. Visitors can explore the salt flat and surrounding areas, including the Refugio de Vida Silvestre Monte de las Barrancas, a nature reserve with a unique ecosystem. The salt flat is also a great spot for stargazing, with clear skies and minimal light pollution. However, it is recommended to visit with a guide, as the salt crust can be fragile and easily broken
