Discover the natural wonders of Argentina on this excursion to the Salinas Grandes: hike up to the salt flats and get stunning views of the surroundings!

Description

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Tilcara at 9:45 am and set off by bus to Purmamarca, a town situated near the Hill of Seven Colours.

After a 30-minute drive, we'll reach Purmamarca, where we'll stop at a viewpoint to observe the rainbow-coloured rock formations of the Hill of Seven Colours, a popular photographic site due to its natural beauty.

We'll then begin our climb up the Lipán and Saladillo Hills to the Abra de Potrerillos viewpoint, at 4,170 metres above sea level. From this vantage point, we can appreciate the Salinas Grandes: a vast expanse of salt flats stretching to the horizon.

Afterwards, we'll return to Purmamarca for free time to have lunch before starting our return trip.

At the end of the tour, we'll make the journey back to Tilcara, arriving at approximately 3:30 pm.
