Rioja Coast Villages Tour

On this tour through the villages of the Rioja coast, we'll explore the most beautiful towns in the region, including Agua Blanca, Las Peñas, and Chuquis!

Description

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in La Rioja before heading to the remarkable area known as the Riojan coast, which does not have any coastline. The reason for this will be explained during our tour.

We'll first pass through Las Padercitas, Quebrada, and Túnel. We will also see the Los Sauces dam and the town of Sanagasta, characterized by its low-lying houses and narrow roads.

Our tour will then take us to the caves of Salamanca and Valle del Huaco. Here, we'll cross the homonymous slope, visiting picturesque villages at the foot of the Sierra del Velazsco - Agua Blanca, Las Peñas, and Chuquis, with a stop at Castro Barros' house museum.

We'll continue along the coast of La Rioja, visiting the towns of Pinchas, Aminga, and Anillaco, before returning to your hotel in La Rioja approximately 5 hours after pickup.

Depending on conditions, we may return via the mountain road or past the Señor de La Peña, a large solitary rock resembling the head of Christ, where thousands of pilgrims gather every Holy Week.
