3/2/09-6/2/09 We ended up staying in Cafayate for 4 days, it was a really nice place to chill out. One of the days we were here we did a trek along Rio Colorado to a water fall (yes that right another waterfall). We got a taxi to the beginning of the river and after refusing a guide we prepared ourselves to get lost. This we did on about 4 occas...

Tuesday morning we packed up our free camp and got the heck out of there for a drive to Cafayate. The weather was awful and rained most of the day. But our tour guide made things interesting and stopped a few times along the way for photo opportunities. One town we did stop in was Tucuman which is considered the sacred valley of Argentina. If th...

Joined by 2 Argies for our 2nd tour we headed to the south of Salta. We drove towards he snow capped mountains which were visible in the distance. The route again was pretty terrible but the scenery was top notch. As you make your way through the valley, rivers traverse the road, huge unguarded drops of 40-50m lay to your side, rocks from recent...

Day 78: October 31, 2007 Salta to Cafayate I got up at 7:15, showered, and got breakfast after getting Elena going. We packed for an overnight and then took the bus down to 20 de Febrero and Entre Ríos where we walked the final block and a half to Lisa's hotel. She was all set to go and excited about the opportunity to get to see some of the cou...

Tomorrow morning Bethany and I leave Cafayate for Salta. The last three days here have been really fun. We left the snow and sleet of La Cumbre behind and came to a sunny (but cold) miniature version of Sonoma. Yesterday we rented bikes in the morning and began a 5k ride to a winery that our hotel recommended. Oh... don´t let me forget to mentio...

For the next leg of our journey we caught the local bus to Cafayate - 3.5 hours on a very windy road through the Quebrada de Cafayate (canyon). And yes I wasn´t feeling too good - the very weird german boys who smelt and the boy chucking up two rows back didn´t improve matters. Cafayate is a small town of 12,000 people, it´s 1700 metres above se...

Hola Amigos After an incredibly scenic bus journey, ascending up to 3,900m and back down to 1,900, we have arrived in the quaint little artisan refuge of Cafayate (pronounced Cafe-chate). Winding down the Calchaqui valley again, the rocky cactus dotted mountains fanned into large wine estates, much more aesthetically dramatic (and less touristy)...

Caught the bus up the valley to the evocatively named Garganta del Diablo - the Devil´s Throat. This is truly a moonscape land - all rolling multicoloured hills, dusty valleys and a sluggish brown river meandering along beside the road. We decided to spend a few days out there, following the road but camping up in the hills. Man it´s hot in the ...
