Important Information

  • The Coloradas pink color fades depending on the weather
  • Participants should be able to walk on uneven terrain * We inform you that due to salt extraction works currently underway in the town of Las Coloradas, the usual pink color visibility is limited. Therefore, until further notice, visits to the tourist stop 'Las Coloradas' will not be conducted. Consequently, we will be conducting tours of the lagoons from the estuary via the nautical route on boats to allow for distant enjoyment of their colors.
