🇦🇷Argentina hides thousands of unexplored co

🇦🇷Argentina hides thousands of unexplored corners that are a paradise for adventure fans.

🔸One of them is the Salar de Antofalla, located in Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca.

📍At 163 km in length, it is the longest salt flat in the world.

It reaches an altitude of 3,900 meters above sea level and extends in a south-southwest to north-northeast direction.

🔹This is one of the most isolated regions of the country because it completely lacks of routes (road), it is a very arid space, without vegetation and without water.

In its center there are three small lagoons called Ojos del Campo interconnected, but with the surprising difference that each one is of one color: the first one is blue, the second one is black and the third one is orange.📸

✨If you like adventure, good postcards and nature, this is a place that you must visit.

📍The Province of La Rioja features dreamed-of scenes in the Andes Mountain Range which turn out to be perfect for adventure travel and outdoor activities.

✨This is one of the most important attractions in the region of Cuyo and in particular in the Province of La Rioja. An inestimable geological treasure that may be visited by car, bicycle or on foot.📸

📍Talampaya National Park occupies an area of approximately 215 thousand hectares, lying in the southern territory of the Province of La Rioja. It contains vestiges of life in the region millions of years ago. Its reddish and brownish hues take visitors to another world once ruled by dinosaurs and other extinct species.🦕

Year after year, over 50 thousand tourists come to this region in Argentina to appreciate the red walls reaching over 150 meters of height, the condors nestling on its peaks and the curious shapes carved in the mountains by erosion. Some of them are el Monje (the Monk) or la Torre (the Tower). Others include el Centinela (the Sentry), el Rey Mago sobre el camello (the Wise Man riding a camel) and Tablero de Ajedrez (the Chessboard).

✨Erosion is carried out by the wind and the rain. As these mountains are made of dirt and sandstone, many of these natural “sculptures” will disappear as time goes by and other shapes will materialize for men to give them new names.

🔹The former denizens of this zone named it “Talampaya” -which stands for "dry river of the tala (a native tree)"- to describe the local scenery.
During most of the year, the river beds are practically dry. Only a thread of water runs along them according to the shape of the ground. On the other hand, during the rainy season, the volume of rivers becomes extremely plentiful, sometimes in a matter of hours, to such an extent that they feature an unusual kind of strength and roughness, dragging along everything they touch.

Afterwards, the water disappears and the beds become dry again. They are turned into wide ideal roads to be traveled on a 4WD, a bike or on foot.🚵

🔸Even sports such as wind-car racing are hosted in these scenes.

🗺️Pampa el Leoncito is located in the town of Barreal in Calingasta. It is a 12 kilometers long and 5 kilometers wide plain that captivates with the immensity of the Andes Mountain Range.🏞️

There is not a single bush: just an even soil with some cracks in the shape of pentagons is perfectly reproduced.

The characteristics of the terrain and the almost constant wind make it a unique place. Landyatching is the favorite sport in this place, reaching a speed of up to 120km/h by the force of the winds and the proximity to the ground.

📸 It is usually considered a captivating excursion and compared to visiting another planet. Leaving the City of San Juan, visitors may get to Barreal and the famous Pampa del Leoncito.

✨ The Calingasta Valley is located just 180 kilometers from the City of San Juan and it is under the constant surveillance of two stone guardians that seem to lie in wait for visitors during each journey: 6,770-meter-high Mount Mercedario and the massive Aconcagua, which reaches 6,960 meters MSL.

Visitors can find the most diverse adventure travel options at El Barreal, among which horseback rides, land yachting, rafting and hiking around the area stand out.

🗺️ Located 273 kilometers away from the capital of San Juan, Ischigualasto Provincial Park opens up to allow a look into the past of our planet through the Triassic Period.

It is also known as Valle de la Luna (Valley of the Moon).
It is a place where nature has been working for over 220 million years. A landscape that is out of this world, and which has become a World Heritage Site.

🦕Visiting Ischigualasto means you will be setting foot on the same areas that dinosaurs steppped on 180 million years ago. The lunar-looking soil and the particular geoforms sculpted by water, sun and wind over the rocks over millions of years, make this a site from another world.

Visiting it allows you to take a look at the evolution of the Earth.📸

In the entrance to Ischigualasto, Cerro Morado offers a view of truly huge walls. There are hikes to its summit to get the best views. At the top, you can see condors and observe the particular vegetation of the place: mountain species, cacti, broom, and jarillas. Among them you may find guanacos, foxes, and vizcachas.

✨During the walk, stops are made to take photographs at the spots: El Gusano, Valle Pintado, Cancha de Bocha, El Submarino and El Hongo, where you may witness the slow, ongoing, and unfailing work of nature: the stones here show strange and mysterious forms.

You have to visit Ischigualasto, YOU HAVE TO VISIT ARGENTINA!!!🇦🇷

✨It is one of the most unique and beautiful geological formations in the world.
The Inca Bridge in Mendoza is one of the province´s natural monuments.

Located at 2719 meters above sea level, was part of the old Camino del Inca.

🌡️ The thermal springs retain an average temperature between 34 and 38oC and are the highest in Argentina.

The composition of the water contains iron and other minerals that give the ferruginous characteristic to the rock formation and the orange, ochre and yellow colors, as very unique landscape tones.
Suspended 27 m above the river, the natural bridge is almost 50 meters long and 28 meters wide.

✨ Legend has it – there is always a surrounding legend – that the son of a great Indian chief was affected by a strange disease.
Rumors about healing issues nearby caused the man to take his son to the place.
A raging river ran down a deep ravine and prevented it from reaching a miraculous destination. His men formed a human bridge for the man to pass carrying his sick son.
Healing was possible in the place of the waters that flowed from the earth. As they crossed again and looked back, their warriors had been petrified, shaping the Inca Bridge.

📸 The ruins of the Hotel Termas de Puente del Inca are part of the scenery in a set mimetized with the bridge.
The old construction used the hot springs as an added value to its lodging services and constituted a luxury in the middle of the mountain.
Today we try to conserve the place for its geological value and promote ecological tourism that preserves the natural resources of protected areas without causing environmental imbalances.
