Details of Day Tours

We will begin this excursion in the morning, around 7 am from Tinogasta, where we will embark on a fascinating journey along National Route 60, which, upon passing through Fiambalá, becomes the famous "Route of the Seismiles". 

This section takes us through a landscape of impressive heights, bordered by some of the highest volcanoes on the planet, many exceeding 6,000 meters above sea level. Along the way, we`ll witness local wildlife, including vicuñas, guanacos, condors, and suris, which are often sighted along the route.

Although the Ruta de los Seismiles extends to Paso San Francisco, our adventure will take a 55-kilometer detour along a gravel road to reach the Balcón del Pissis, where we`ll arrive around 11 a.m. 

The first stop will be the Laguna de los Aparejos, home to flamingos that migrate to this area during the summer. The next stop is the Laguna Celeste, known for the intensity of its vibrant blue color. Finally, we will reach the Balcón del Monte Pissis, a natural viewpoint at 4,550 meters above sea level from which we will contemplate the Pissis Volcano, the fourth highest mountain in America and the highest inactive volcano in the world, at 6,792 meters.

The return is made by the same route as the outward journey, but due to the passing of the day and the position of the Sun, the route is painted in other shades and colors. We arrive at the hotels at approximately 2:00 p.m.

------

To have an even more complete experience, you can add a more complete tour of the Route of the Seismiles. On the way back, instead of going back through Fiambalá, we will continue along Route 60 to Paso San Francisco, skirting the majestic San Francisco, Tres Cruces, Los Patos and Incahuasi hills. 

This section will take us through the Quebrada de las Angosturas, a pre-mountainous area characterized by its multicoloured hills. At the end of the journey, we will arrive at the hotels around 5 pm, with a trip enriched by the varied palette of colours of the landscape at sunset.
