The Altiplano experiences extreme temperatures and a dry, sunny climate with significant diurnal variations. The dry season (May to October) offers clear skies and cold nights, while the wet season (November to April) brings rain, making the salt flats reflective but potentially hindering travel.
The dry season, particularly April to October, is ideal for visiting the Altiplano due to stable weather, sunny days, and the stunning mirror effect on the Salar de Uyuni during the early part of the wet season (around January-February).
Peak season generally aligns with the dry months of June through August, offering the most reliable weather for exploration. Expect colder temperatures, especially at night, and higher visitor numbers.
The wet season, from November to April, can be considered off-season. While some areas might be inaccessible due to rain, you'll find fewer crowds and potentially lower prices, with the added spectacle of the Salar de Uyuni's mirror effect.
