La Cumbrecita
It is one of the tourist stops par excellence of Cordoba. His story is recent, but not for that poor. It is a commune that was founded by a German family around 1934, initially as a place to vacation. Today, thousands of tourists go every year attracted by its traditions, its beautiful waterfall - called by the Germans almbach, the stream of the hill - and its forests.

The curious thing about Córdoba is that the tourism experiences it offers seem to be increasing. Every day new adventure opportunities are discovered, new causes to make their way from the center of Argentina to where the eyes first arrive and then the feet.
