Tour of Sierra Zonda

- Hotel pick up
Escape city life and head into the beautiful Sierra Zonda mountain range when you take our fantastic 4x4 tour. You will explore the San Juan river valley and hike along a picturesque hillside path.
Tour of Sierra Zonda
We will collect you from your hotel before boarding a 4x4 vehicle to start our very special tour.
After traveling for 40 minutes, we will make our first stop at the Ullum Dam, one of the most important works of engineering in Argentina. Then we continue towards the San Juan river valley, in the heart of the Sierra Zonda.
Once we have arrived in the valley, we will leave the tarmac road behind and take the 4x4 vehicle along the rough terrain tracks that wind through the foothills on the edge of the magnificent Andes mountain range. After an exciting trip through some spectacular landscapes, we will park the car and begin our hike. The 4-hour route follows a famous path known as the 'Infiernillo' (the camping stove) which takes us over hills, through forests, and past pretty waterfalls.
When the walk has finished, we climb back into the ATV and drive back to your hotel in San Juan.
