The bizarre Valle de la Luna is about 40 minutes drive from La Paz. The barren rocky landscape looks like a lunar landscape. 2 short hiking trails lead through the Mondtal. It goes over steps and bridges, up and down, at a height of 2,400 meters. Entry is 15 bolivianos. As the tour is quite short (but very impressive), it is worth taking a short detour to the nearby statue, which offers a great view over La Paz.

The bizarre formations created by erosion in the Valle de la Luna do not consist of rock, but mainly of reddish and gray-brown clay. They look like stalagmites. Every year they become on average one centimeter smaller due to rainfall. The area is almost devoid of vegetation, only a few cacti grow here.
