Set 2,400 metres above sea level, sandboarders can enjoy 360 degree views of Death Valley, the name of which was coined by the French priest who discovered the area.
Guided Sandboarding excursions in San Pedro de Atacama are available throughout the day.
There are no lifts up but individual excursions and private board hire are also available.
