4th trip through Chile and first visit here. Definitely with a photo stop

Wow this place is busy! There is a constant coming and going by cars - and big semi trucks - from the highway, stopping for photos. We arrived late afternoon and it was extremely windy, blowing from the north. We camped for one night just north of the statue on a little hump. The wind quietened down after the sun set. Our fan blocked out any traffic and tourist noise at night. Having people around allows for family portraits. :)

Mano del Desierto. Here a gigantic hand-shaped sculpture comes out of the sand. It's very pretty and you can take beautiful photos.

Iconic statue you have to take a picture with if you visit the north of Chile! It is beautiful.

Meh… what you see in the photos is what you get. It’s just a hand with a little bit of graffiti on the side of a busy highway. Wasn’t worth a detour from the B710 to us, but if you’re driving by, might as well?

Easy to get to and really quite the statue to see. Worth a quick stop on the way to Santiago or Antofagasta.

Worth a stop. Oddity. Easy access off and on Hwy. 5.
