Laguna Blanca, lake in Sur Lípez Province, Potosí Department, Bolivia

Laguna Blanca is a salt lake in Sur Lípez Province at high altitude in the Andes mountains. The lake gets its name from its whitish water, which results from high salt concentration.

The lake sits in a remote part of the Bolivian highlands and was long difficult to access. Its importance to the region has grown as the high plateau became better explored.

The location is extremely high and very remote, so you need to prepare for sparse terrain. Visitors should allow time for altitude acclimatization and bring sturdy equipment.

The water is so salty that it turns a milky white color visible from a great distance. This extreme salt concentration makes swimming unusually buoyant.
