the very beautiful one. Salta is the main base for tourist
excursions in the North. From here, you can head to Cafayate,
the wine region, the valleys and mountains of Calchaqui Valley, the
picturesque route to the historic village of Cachi, the amazing Los
Cardones National Park, and much more.
This city has some of the best preserved colonial architecture in
the country.The most significant buildings in Salta are grouped around the main
square, Plaza 9 de Julio. They include the Cathedral, the Cabildo (town hall)
which houses the Museo Histrico del Norte, and the San Francisco Church,
which has one of the highest church towers in America (53 m). The Museo
Arqueolgico de Alta Montaa has a very interesting collection of exhibits
gathered from high-altitude Inca shrines, including mummified children.
The Museo de Bellas Artes (Fine Art Museum) resides in a 2 storey colonial
mansion on Florida Street, 2 blocks west of Plaza 9 de Julio. San Bernardo
Convent is one of the oldest buildings in the city. It has a hand-carved wooden
door made by the natives dating back to 1762.

PURMAMARCA
PURMAMARCA
Purmamarca has pre-Hispanic origins and an urban layout which is centred around
the main Church. It is located 3 km west from National Route 9 (65 km from
San Salvador de Jujuy). This village lies against the exceptional Cerro de los
Siete Colores (Hill of Seven Colours), which has sedimentary rocks of different
colours illustrating various geological eras. Handicraft fairs also colour the village
streets, with clothing, crafts, ponchos, and woven cloths available for purchase.
Attractions at Purmamarca are plentiful. Whether you choose to visit the Saint
Rosas church at the centre of town, built in 1648 and featuring original Cuzco
School style paintings, or the neighbouring archaeological sites littered with cave
paintings, you will undoubtedly be touched by local flavour. In addition, the Paseo
de los Colorados marks for a gorgeous three-kilometre walk, featuring naturally
sculpted red cliffs and a series of breathtaking views.
Another highlight is the vast Salinas Grandes
(Great Salt Flats), which are easy accessible by
local taxi from the main plaza. The drive goes over
the Cuesta del Lipn, bordering cliffs through a
deep canyon while reaching 4200 m until you get
to this enormous salt pan.
TILCARA
This lively Andean village is a great place for exploring the Quebrada de
Humahuaca. Theres an excellent arts and crafts market and lots of places
to eat in and around its charming central plaza. Evenings can be enjoyed
wandering around, bar hopping and attending local peas*. The well attended
religious procession in January and the Pachamama (Mother Earth) festival
in August are worth catching.
:: Pucar de Tilcara: a restored pre-Hispanic fortress located on a hilltop,
where one can appreciate the astonishing views of the Quebrada landscapes.
:: Museo Arqueolgico: hosts an extensive collection of pre-Columbian
ceramics, masks and mummies.

HUMAHUACA
The town of Humahuaca is a sun drenched land filled with memories of
cultures past that continue their influence on architecture, traditions, legends
and beliefs related to nature and local heroes. The rustic adobe (mud) houses,
the narrow cobbled streets and the old colonial street lamps create the illusion
that time has stopped. In the centre of the village is the Cabildo (Town
Hall), the beautiful Cathedral, built in the XVII century and the imposing
Independence Monument with a statue exalting the virtues of the native
culture. Dont miss Peas Blancas and Pucar (an archaeological site and
viewpoint located 1 km from town), the Serranas de Hornocal (limestone
formations with a variety of colors, almost 5000 meters above the sea
level - highest viewpoint of the gorge), Inca Cueva (caves with rock art of
great archaeological value - 10 thousand years BC), Coctaca (prehispanic
agricultural site), and Hornaditas (aboriginal community, cactus forrest, El
Pintado or Sapagua petroglyphs).
From the town of Humahuaca you can take a local bus and visit Iruya (3hrs
away). The village really has an end of the road feel as the one road literally
ends in front of the church. Surrounded by a breathtaking view, with cliffs
and mountains enclosing the village; its steep cobblestone streets take you
back to the past. Dont miss Cerro de la Cruz viewpoint. You can also go on
a horseback ride, take a 4x4 tour or hike to remote San Isidro (8km away).

LA QUIACA
LA QUIACA
La Quiaca is the last stop before entering Bolivia. Its a small
village about 190 km from Humahuaca at 3,442 m.a.s.l. Its
next to the Bolivian border, connecting via an international
bridge. You will be attracted by the way people live, the
characteristic clothing of the women and men, and the active
trade in local products. The Central Market is interesting to
see, and from here there is local transport that takes you to
the historic village of Yavi (it leaves all the time), situated only
16 km east of La Quiaca through a paved road.
Yavi was founded in 1667 and has under 400 inhabitants that live in adobe (mud)
wall houses with typical roofs made out of reed, clay and straw. You should visit
the San Franciscos Chapel, built in 1690 and the mansion of the Marquis of
Tojo (converted into a museum).
From Yavi there are walking trails around the nearby Cerros Colorados, including
rock paintings and petroglyphs. Five km south of Yavi, at the foot of the Siete
Hermanos Mountains, you will find the Laguna Colorada with astonishing rock
paintings of human figures, llamas, spirals and portrayals of the activities and
customs, all painted by the primitive inhabitants.

LAS GRUTAS
Argentina
LAS GRUTAS
If youre looking for dramatic natural beauty and an authentic local experience,
then head to Las Grutas. Its a quaint but growing resort town that is less
touristy than the larger Puerto Madryn (263 km south).
Its white sand beach is surrounded by picturesque cliffs and thanks to its
microclimate, has the warmest water in Argentina! Some of the cliffs have
eroded away creating natural caves that separate the beach from the town. In
fact, Las Grutas means the grottos in Spanish.
At low tide, dont miss the unique carved-out stone pools near the Cero
entry point to the beach. The water is refreshed each tidal cycle and quickly
warmed in the sun.
Southern Right Whales, Orcas, dolphins, sea lions, condors and penguins also
make this their home at least part of the year (normally in winter).
While youre there, take advantage of their clear water and go on a snorkeling,
scuba diving or kayak excursion off the coast. Another option is to take in the
exquisite coastal landscape by horseback riding along the beach.
From Las Grutas you can take many excursions, including whale watching at
Pennsula Valds, going to the old iron mines, Fuerte Argentino, Islote Lobos
penguin colony, or the biggest salt flats in Argentina, the Salinas del Gualicho.

EL CHALTEN
EL CHALTEN
Located 220 km northwest of El Calafate, El Chaltn is considered to be the trekking
capital of Argentina. This charming village is surrounded by lakes, lagoons, mountains
and glaciers allowing for a wide spectrum of outdoor activities. Unguided hikes are
common as the trails are free, well marked and easily accessible. There finally is cell
phone reception, with Movistar & Personal, and there is one ATM in town.
The two most predominant peaks are Fitz Roy (3,405 m) and Cerro* Torre (3,128
m). They represent a challenge for both recreational trekkers and for expert mountain
climbers. An excellent glacier trek is also available on Cerro Torre.
For those needing a break from the challenging hikes, another great way to experience
the surrounding beauty is by horseback. Otherwise, you can take a boat excursion to
the shores of Viedma glacier, where a short hiking path allows you to get up-close and
personal with the glacier. About 40 km north of El Chaltn you will encounter Laguna*
del Desierto, a tranquil lake surrounded by forests, various trekking trails and a hanging
glacier. Culture wise you should do the daily 3 o'clock tour to El Chaltn's pioneer
Estancia Cerro Fitz Roy. Chile crossing: ask about the 130 km trip to Villa O'Higgins at
the end of the Carretera Austral in Chile via boat and bus, bicycle, horseback or on foot.
More handy info about El Chaltn via the app: elchalten.patagoniaapps.com.ar.

Argentina
EL CALAFATE
Located on the shores of Lago Argentino, El Calafate is best known as the starting
point from which to visit The Glaciers National Park, a World Heritage Site home
to 13 glaciers. The famous 5km wide Perito Moreno is one of only two advancing
glaciers in South America. There are many ways to get to the park; you can rent a
car, take a bus or join a tour. From there you can go on a relaxing boat trip amongst
huge icebergs to marvel at the giant ice blocks detaching and plunging into Lago
Argentino. Another boat tour takes you towards the 50km long Upsala glacier.
Onelli and Agassiz glaciers can be admired after a 1.5km walk from Onelli Bay.
Besides the glaciers, a few adventure activities worth mentioning are horseback
riding, trekking, 4x4 expeditions, estancia* visits, fly fishing and mountain biking.
The new glacier museum is the best way to learn how glaciers form and also a
chance to drink your whisky on glacier rocks in their ice
bar. El Calafate's main strip is great for strolling around,
with lots of souvenir shops, cafes and restaurants. Nearby
is Baha Redonda with upland geese, black necked swans
and flamingos and the Laguna Nimez Nature Reserve
with about 90 species of birds!
