Uyuni Trip Planner

Trip Planner : South America / Bolivia / Potosi Department / Uyuni

Uyuni

Emptiness surrounds the desert outpost of Uyuni, the gateway to the world's largest salt flats. Life can be challenging in the arid town of around 10,000 people, formed as a trading post in 1890 and located 3,700 m (12,139 ft) above sea level. The difficulty of getting fresh water to the area has made agriculture almost impossible, but a boom in Uyuni tourism has kept the town going--and growing. Uyuni is in Potosi Department.
