Pukara de Quitor: 12th-Century Fortress Views & Hilltop Hiking

5.0 (16)

Rent a mountain bike in San Pedro and pedal the 3km out here instead of taking a van. This pre-Inca stone fortress offers the best vantage point of the Salt Mountain Range without the massive crowds. Hike the steep path to the summit for the panorama, then explore the lower ruins for the history. Budget two hours for the whole loop. Wear actual shoes—the gravel path is sketchy in sandals. Skip the midday sun; it’s brutal.

Address: San Pedro de Atacama, Antofagasta
