    Laguna Hedionda (Spanish for "stinking lake") is a salt lake in the Nor Lípez Province of the Potosí Department of Bolivia. It is known for various migratory species of pink and white flamingos.

    Laguna Hedionda is one of the nine small salt lakes in the Andean Altiplano. It lies at an elevation of 4,121 metres (13,520 ft) and has an area of 3 square kilometres (1.2 sq mi). Salt flats and bofedales (wetlands) are spread around the periphery of the lake. It is located in a very remote area where there are hardly any people. However, llamas and alpacas can also be seen grazing in the area.
