Our laguna brava 4x4 tour is unique in the region. Join us through this circuit of incomparable beauty through which we will ascend to the Andes Mountains through two streams, the Quebrada de la Troya and the Quebrada del Peñón until getting to Laguna Brava.
We will walk through Laguna Brava, surrounded by numerous volcanic peaks and declared vicuñas reserve, located in an Andean region over 4,000 meters high. Here depending on the time, we can see beautiful pink flamingos feeding.
It is an ideal tour to admire the native flora and fauna of La Rioja and explore a virgin region of beautiful colors, located in a privileged place. Don`t miss it!

About this tour
We will depart from Villa Unión at 7 Hrs, we will pass through Villa Castelli and Vinchina where we will visit the Diaguitas stars, and then we will enter the Quebrada de la Trolla. We will walk a path to the Riverside, meandering between impressive folds and fractures of the earth`s crust. Among the strata, we will find traces of prehistoric animals that toured the area in search of water, which were printed on the rocks and extracted for conservation and study.
We will arrive at the town of Jague, which is an old town preserved almost entirely with its adobe houses. Then we will begin the ascent to the Cordillera through the Quebrada del Peñón, of beautiful
colors that will leave us surprised not only by their sight but by their inhabitants: we can find traps of vicuñas and guanacos that go down to graze. Here we can take pictures with the Cerro Pilar , which has impressive colors.
We will continue climbing up to the Portezuelo de la Laguna, access door to the Laguna Brava. We will approach it on the east side until we reach the Flamencos Bay, where between October and March
we can enjoy the view of pink flamingos, which come down to feed on the plankton of the waters of the lagoon.
If weather conditions permit, we will try to prolong this excursion: we will go around the lagoon until we reach the Refuge, where we will reach the western edge of the lagoon where we will be surprised with the Geysers of the Brava lagoon.
We will return to the Quebrada del Peñón enjoying the colorful path, and we will have a picnic as a lunch in the Refuge. After lunch, we will return to Jague, we will cross again the Quebrada de la Troya towards Vinchina, arriving at Villa Unión at approximately 6:00 p.m.
