Located just 183 km from Salta, Cafayate is the region’s second most important city, famous for its torrontés (white, fruity) wine. The area’s unique climate—perfectly balanced in temperature and humidity—makes it ideal for cultivating this select grape variety.
Starting in Cerillos, you’ll travel along a scenic route that changes at every curve, offering stunning contrasts of colors and landscapes. The journey passes through El Carril, Coronel Moldes, Ampascachi, Talapampa, and the Quebrada del Río Las Conchas, a natural monument known for its striking rock formations and colorful hills.
Upon arriving in Cafayate, located in the Valles Calchaquíes, you will visit a local winery and taste its renowned wines. On the return trip to Salta, enjoy the quebrada at sunset and stop at Posta de las Cabras, a traditional roadside stop where you can sample and purchase artisanal cheeses and wines.
