Someday we will visit Northern Chile or begin to dream about going there! However, for now its not on our radar. Let us know in the comments if you think that should change!

Northern Chile

The Northern region of Chile is among the driest regions in the world.

The Norte Grande, which extends from the Peruvian border to about 27° south latitude, a line roughly paralleled by the Copiapó river, is extremely arid. It contains the Atacama Desert, one of the driest areas in the world; in certain sections, this desert does not register any rainfall at all. Average monthly temperatures range at sea level between about 20.5 °C during the summer and about 14 °C during the winter. Most of the population lives in the coastal area, where the temperatures are more moderate and the humidity higher.
