Between Andes and Pacific - The North Chile

PLAY


Embark on an extraordinary expedition through Northern Chile, a region of extremes!

The Atacama, one of the driest and oldest deserts on earth, shapes a large part of the landscape between the Andes and the Pacific. The 6,500-meter-high volcanoes of the Andes mountain chain tower majestically over the Altiplano, the highlands over 4,000 meters high, with spectacular salt lakes, mysterious geoglyphs, the world’s most advanced telescopes and a desert landscape reminiscent of the Moon and Mars.

A land of contrasts. The mighty Humboldt Current flows off the coast of Chile, its cold waters providing a fascinating abundance of marine ecosystems. Huge fin whales migrate here along the coast. The documentary takes viewers on a journey to people who call this unique landscape their home.
