Why take this tour?

This is a taste of lush, sub-tropical jungle landscape, close to Salta city, and in complete contrast to some of the more rugged desert terrain of north-west Argentina. Our guide is experienced in hiking all terrain, and speaks English and Spanish. We have groups of a maximum of four people, so every hike can be tailor-made to your taste. We will provide a typical salteño lunch of empanadas, included in the price. This particular short trek is suitable for all abilities.
