“THE JOURNEY IS THE ADVENTURE… meandering
canyons and driving over high plateaus that exceed
10,000 feet elevations, with cold winds requiring
heavy jackets in the summer, traversable only
January throught mid-April, this is an extreme
environment where the journey is the most
exhilarating part of getting to Laguna del Diamante
(Spanish for: lake of the diamond).
These are extreme conditions where life barely
exists. Only the strong and adaptable survive. The
views are breathtaking so a few stops along the way
are necessary to take it all in. You must go in a wellequipped
off-road vehicle. I went with DJ Servicios in
their Monster 4×4 Mercedes-Benz (photo previous
spread); they specialize in transportation to areas of
difficult access like mining and industrial personnel.
They do group trips to Laguna del Diamante and
include a knowledgable guide.”
