Valle de la Luna (Moonvalley)
Sarah Weick
KIT, Germany
The erosion landscape 'Valle de la Luna' is located about 10 km SW of La Paz, Bolivia. It is composed of clay and sandstone, which are highly prone to erosion. Wind and rain shaped the moonlike valley over years and left shapes similar to stalagmites. In the Central Cordillera and the Sub-Andean Zone it is likely to find more of these erosion landscapes.
