EXPLORE SALTA & JUJUY – 6 Days

You will leave Salta in a two-day excursion (shared service). We recommend you to leave your luggage in your hotel in Salta, and just take a day pack on the excursion.

Early in the morning we will travel along the same route of the famous Train to the Clouds, zigzagging on lonely roads between the blue sky and the high desert plains. On our way, we will visit historic ruins, scattered houses, small villages and amazing landscapes.

Our first destination is the small town of Campo Quijano and later the impressive Quebrada del Toro, where we will stop for a refreshing coffee break after some stunning viewpoints. From here, we will visit Santa Rosa de Tastil, a pre-Incan city of the XIII century. Later on, we visit San Antonio de los Cobres, one of the smallest villages in the region, en route to the surreal landscape of the Great Salt Flats. These are perfect for amateur and professional photographers alike -the natural light and reflections provide ample opportunities to test your creativity to the fullest.

Later in the afternoon we will arrive to our comfortable hotel in Purmamarca, located at the base of Jujuy’s famed 7-colored mountain. Overnight in Purmamarca.
