NORTHWEST

Bright colorful ravines, the magnificence of the Pre-Columbian cultures and hidden small villages which will transport you in time, will make you fall for this magic, warm paradise: The North-west of Argentina.

This area is the open door to an extraordinary variety of pictures of salt, desert, and jungle. You are invited to feel a deep natural and cultural experience, embellished by its exquisite flavors, the nature of its wines, the melody of its folk music and by its main feature: the people’s politeness.

We will be very pleased to take you and show you this vast land of salt, going through the winding Cuesta de Lipán and the Puno village called San Antonio de Los Cobres.

Mankind Heritance, Jujuy:
