Hiking in San Lorenzo

When making your booking, you'll be able to opt for a 3 or 7-hour route. In both cases, we'll meet up at your chosen time on Calle Juan Carlos Dávalos.

3-Hour Route

We will start in the colonial town of San Lorenzo and head to its outskirts, reaching the ravine of the same name. The route will follow the San Lorenzo River, taking us up several slopes to different viewpoints. You'll see panoramic views of Salta, just a few miles away.

We'll explore the unique biome of the yungas of San Lorenzo and spot endemic trees such as cockspur coral trees, walnut trees, myrtles, and alders. At the highest point, 5,900 feet (1,800 meters) above sea level, you'll see the Lerma Valley to the south and the Andean foothills to the north and west.

We will return along another path to the starting point after 3 hours. Schedule: every day at 10 am and 3 pm.

7-Hour Route

This is a high-difficulty route covering 12 miles (19 kilometers) that reaches an altitude of 7,870 feet (2,400 meters). The route begins with an ascent through the San Lorenzo ravine to the Eastern Cordillera, featuring trees typical of the Selva Montana like cockspur coral trees and cedars, as well as lush ferns and diverse epiphytes.

During the tour, you'll enjoy views of Lerma Valley and the Eastern Cordillera. Schedule: every day at 10 am.
