Iruya Trip
Your adventure begins with a pickup from your Jujuy hotel at the designated time, followed by a drive to the stunning high valleys of northern Argentina. Prepare your camera to capture the beauty of these remarkable landscapes!
As we travel, we will pass through a unique transition zone between desert and jungle. At altitudes exceeding 12,000 feet, you’ll discover how ancient communities thrived in this region, cultivating terrace-grown products on sloped mountain sides to utilize rainwater effectively.
Upon arrival at the scenic town of Iruya, perched amid hills, rivers, clouds, and ravines, we’ll take in spectacular views from the well-known Mirador del Condor viewpoint. Following this, a leisurely walk through its steep stony streets will unveil the village’s many hidden treasures.
During your exploration of the historic center, you’ll notice the parish church, situated in a prime location. You will then have an hour of free time to enjoy a meal and explore at your own pace.
After your lunch break, we will make our way back to your hotel in Jujuy, concluding the experience approximately 10 hours after our departure.
