The Dali Desert, located in the Salar d'Uyuni region of Bolivia, is a surreal landscape worthy of Salvador Dalí's paintings. Although none of the artist's works are directly linked to it, its vast expanses of ochre sand, distant mountains and strange rock formations evoke a dreamlike world. This desert, perched at an altitude of around 4,800 metres, offers a unique experience, where the silence and immensity of nature seem suspended in time.
Visitors can admire rocks sculpted by the wind over thousands of years, some of which are reminiscent of modern sculptures. The desert is often included in tours leading to the Salar d'Uyuni, the largest salt desert in the world, and other natural wonders of the Bolivian Altiplano, such as colourful lagoons and geysers.
The Dali Desert embodies the meeting of art and nature, where each element of the landscape seems to tell a unique story. This remote location is ideal for photography enthusiasts, adventure-seeking travellers and those wishing to explore places off the beaten track.
