It is one of the most attractive expeditions Northwest Argentina has to offer. Deep experience with nature and a millenary route, traveling ancient roads that becomes magical while you walk them, landscapes of deep ravines, valleys and small pampas. It will transform from the intense green of the jungles to the bare landscape of the high mountains. Along the road, condors will be seen furrowing the skies, flocks of guanacos and vicuñas.
It starts from the Yungas Biosphere Reserve, a jungle environment with a high biodiversity value, crossing different jungle biotypes, until reaching high grasslands, ascending the high mountains that separate the jungles of the Puna. In this adventure you will visit the towns of San Francisco, San Lucas, and you will arrive at the camping area known as the Abra El Potrero. Then the ascent continues to Molulo and beyond over the Yuto Pampa summits from where it leaves to the highest point of the route, at 4010 meters above sea level. Then we descend to the Quebrada de Humahuaca, arriving at Tilcara which marks the end of the crossing
