Combarbalá, in northern Chile, is known for copper mining and the artisanal production of combarbalite stone, a cultural symbol of the region. Despite being small, it attracts travelers looking for exclusive experiences linked to astronomy, thanks to its clear skies. Access is via flights to La Serena, followed by ground transportation or private helicopter to the city. The region still offers rustic charm, hospitality and experiences tailored for the sophisticated visitor.
In Combarbalá, experience a tailor-made immersion under one of the starriest skies on the planet. Arrive by helicopter for a panoramic view of the Andean region and exclusive access to local astronomical observatories with private observation sessions. Visit specially curated combarbalite workshops, explore trails amid unique rock formations and end the day with a tasting dinner paired with wines from Valle del Elqui, in a boutique guesthouse of your own.
