Probably the most striking place in Bolivia is Salar de Uyuni, which is a gigantic salt desert. The bright withe, flat plain makes you think you are travelling on clouds. In this truley surreal setting the horizon seems to be the only point of orientation.
This is a view from Incahuasi island, a lonely cactus island in the middle of the salar
Below is our travel group, consisting of two charming indian girls [cheers Sanju and Bijal!], french twins and your favourite gringos from Austria.
Sunrise in the desert is simply stunning!
One of the highlights of our salttour was climbing volcano Tunupa, until 4.700m height - by far the highest place we ever reached - [although it doesn't even look so, see photo below]
