Itinerary
Day 1: Expedition to wine resort of Colome
Stop At: Cuesta del Obispo, RN33, Salta Argentina
From the Valle de Lerma, we travel up the winding mountain road of the Cuesta del Obispo, reaching a height of nearly 3,500m at the peak of the Piedra del Molino.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Parque Nacional Los Cardones, Cachi Argentina
The landscape changes completely from verdant green sub-tropical vegetation to the wide open desert plain of the Parque Nacional de los Cardones: peppered with candelabra cacti as far as the eye can see.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Los Colorados, Salta 4413 Argentina
We travel through the breath-taking deep red landscape of Los Colorados and from Molinos follow a rough mountain road, with outstanding views at every turn, to arrive at Colome, a superb vineyard set like a jewel in the hills of the Valles Calchaquies.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Experiencia Colome, Ruta Provincial 53 km 20 Molinos 4419 Provincia de Salta, Argentina., Molinos 4400 Argentina
This is the highest altitude wine region in the world, famous for its Torrontes white wine and red varieties of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and the lesser known Tannat, perfectly designed for the Argentine asado (barbecue). Colome is also developing varieties of Sauvignon Blanc, Bonarda and Pinot Noir. After wine tasting we will visit the James Turrell museum, a stunning exploration of how light plays with and deceives human perception.
Duration: 16 hours

• Lunch: Picnic lunch on Day 1 INCLUDED
Accommodation included: Overnight at the luxury hotel of Estancia Colome.
Day 2: Return from Colome via Cachi
Stop At: Iglesia San Pedro Nolasco de los Molinos, Calle Abraham Cornejo S/N, Molinos A4420AGA Argentina
