Northwest Argentina - Salta & the Altiplano travel

The Andes of northwest Argentina boast some of the most beautiful and unusual landscapes on earth, those of the Puna high plateau. Travelling through northwest Argentina means experiencing the full breadth of the country’s rural and indigenous life, from adobe villages to well-preserved colonial towns. The Tin-Tin Straight road runs alongside dizzying quebradas ravines, and as the day draws to a close, you cannot help but be moved by the blazing colours and shades of red that fill the clear skies of the Argentine Andes. Tucumán, Jujuy, Salta and Cafayate are home to vast estancias ranches on a Latin American scale: thousands of square kilometres or miles, thousands of horses or heads of cattle, and vineyards of great repute. Further west, the road leads to Los Cobres and the border with the high-lying deserts of Chile.
