Local tips
- The best time to visit is during the cooler months (October to March) to avoid the harsh desert heat.
- Wear comfortable shoes and clothing suitable for walking on sand and protection from the sun.
- Carry plenty of water and sunscreen, as the desert environment can be dehydrating and intense.
- Consider hiring a local guide who can provide insights into the history and significance of the geoglyphs.
- Respect the site and avoid walking directly on the geoglyphs to help preserve them for future generations.
