Chile welcomes the Blooming Desert 2025

Imagine walking through an arid, silent desert, where sand and rocks dominate the landscape… and suddenly, an explosion of colors transforms everything. Pinks, lilacs, yellows, and whites paint the ground like a giant living canvas. This is the Blooming Desert, and in 2025, Chile once again offers this natural spectacle that only happens when nature decides to awaken. 

Over 200 species of flowers, many endemic to northern Chile, emerge thanks to the winter rains that blanket the Atacama Region. From the trails of Llanos de Challe National Park to the coast of Chañaral de Aceituno, every corner becomes a dreamlike setting. 

But this phenomenon is fragile: every step and every flower counts. In our article, we explain how to enjoy it responsibly, the best time to visit, and the must-see spots so you don’t miss a single detail.
