Isla Incahuasi

Hey, we’re Vicky and Malte! A visit to Isla Incahuasi was one of the highlights of our time in Salar de Uyuni! This small island in the middle of the salt flats is covered with giant cacti and offers stunning 360-degree views of the salt desert. The hike to the top is short but worth it for the amazing panoramic views. While you're there, you'll find a toilet and the chance to buy water, which is a lifesaver in the hot sun. It’s a great spot to take a break before heading back to the salt flats. If you're planning a trip to Salar de Uyuni, don’t miss Isla Incahuasi!

A very interesting place. One of the must-go at Uyuni salt flat. This strange island suddenly appeared out of nowhere, with many humongous cacti standing everywhere on the island. You can take a 30 minutes easy hike to the top, and the view is spectacular - the salt flat looks like snow!! Just be careful of the winds. The bathrooms are fine.

Wow, this place was absolutely amazing. So beautiful with an amazing view in all directions. It’s usually very packed because all Uyuni Tours pass by here (see photos, the parking area is full of these tour offroad vehicles). Absolutely recommendable.

Must see when visiting the salt flats. You need to pay an entrance fee to visit the island. There is also a WC in the island. Unique views from the top and all around you just the salt flats. The amount of cactuses is impressive.

Beautiful cactus island in the vast salt flats. Very magical to see the white salt as far as the eyes can see surrounding this strange island. One of the main stops for the Uyuni tour. Good bathroom and a little cafe available!

Amazing place that feels unreal, I recommend going for the sunrise

A land full of big cactus in the middle of desert, quite impressive. The entrance is 30Bs and the restrooms are free here. There is store here that sells water bottles and juices for 10Bs
