Laguna Verde surrounded by mountains with a sign in the foreground


Taken on a 3 day tour across the high Bolivian Altiplano from Chile (San Pedro de Atacama) through the desert and rugged terrain over to Uyuni in Bolivia. This lake is one of the key attractions en route. The lake lies at the foot of the volcano Licancabur. Its colour is caused by sediments, containing copper minerals. It is elevated some 4,300 m (14,000 ft) above sea level.
