Your Tour Itinerary
Your Valle of the Moon Tour starts with the pick-up from your hotel by your private driver and guide. You’ll drive 10 km away from downtown to Valle de la Luna located in the southern zone in the village of Mallasa and parallel to La Paz golf course (the highest tournament standard golf course in the world) the “Valley of the Moon” is landscape of eroded rock and pinnacles with a lunar like appearance.
It’s said that Neil Armstrong himself named this enigmatic place as the “Valley of the Moon” because of its great resemblance to the craters that he saw on his trip to the moon.
It can make for interesting photographs and a pleasant walk to view the different formations. Several species of cactus can also be seen. The tour is usually brief and consists of around a 45 minute guided walk. This area is lower than central La Paz and is much warmer. At the end of the walk there is a good view of La Paz city.
The Valley of the Moon was formed due to erosion consuming the upper part of a mountain, made up of clay soil. Over the centuries it has exercised its modeling and winds and rains have built this spectacular and unusual landscape of white chimneys.
There are two circular trails to choose from in the Valle de la Luna, each of them will lead you to different viewpoints. Devil’s Point (the most spectacular viewpoint) is towards the end of the longest track, which takes around 45 minutes to complete. The other track is much shorter, only 15 minutes to complete.
