Some of my favorite photos from biking through Bolivia’a Altiplano. From La Paz to Sajama, then through the massive Salar Coipasa and the famous Salar De Uyuni, and finally riding the extremely tough but beautiful Las Lagunas route.
The photos are in no other order than which ones I like the best, but here is about where each is taken:
1. Isla Incahuasi (Salar de Uyuni)
2. After Laguna Chalviri (Las Lagunas)
3. Laguna Colorado (Las Lagunas)
4. After Laguna Ramaditas (Las Lagunas)
5. Leaving Hotel Tayka el Desierto (Las Lagunas)
6. Laguna Honda (Las Lagunas)
7. Laguna Chiar Khota (Las Lagunas)
8. Isla Incahuasi (Salar De Uyuni)
9. Outside of Sabaja
10. Between Sajama and Sabaja
11. Volcano Sajama
12. Just past Rosario
13. Salar De Uyuni
14. Volcano Tunupa
15. Salar Coipasa
16. Before descending towards Polques (Las Lagunas)
17. Looking back at Bolivia, just before the border to Chile (Las Lagunas)
18. Bolivian / Chiliean border (Las Lagunas)
19. La Paz
20. Cyclist tradition (Salar De Uyuni) (Not sure if NSFW, sorry if so)
