Close to the village center lies the Vilama Rio, a valley that, although rarely visited by tourists and guides, is very worth discovering for the nature lovers who seek a bit of of green in the landscape. Further up along the river lies the Valley of Guatin, more known as the Cactus Valley due to the abundancy of Coirones, an endemic specie of gigantic cactus which makes this landscape very unique. The Coiron cactus grows about 1cm each year and in Guatin it is possible to observe some of them exceeding 4 meters of height.
If you follow this road in direction of the Tatio geysers you will find the Puritama springs. These thermal waters stem from the geothermic soil of the andean tectonic fault and generate a thermal rising charged with minerals. A very popular spot for those looking to relax and enjoy it to the fullest!
