Cycle through the yungas of Tucumán
May your senses be filled with green. May your lungs breathe in the jungle. May the meandering trails and the mountains that appear after each curve startle you. The yungas of Tucumán, adjoining the provincial capital city, are one of the best places in Argentina for bicycle touring: it is a paradise for adventures on two wheels.
As you cycle along trails surrounded by mountains, jungle and rivers, you will be able to take in some of the flora and fauna of Tucumán and stop for a rest at viewpoints that offer spellbinding views of the region. You can travel on your own or hire one of the many companies that offer outings of varying degrees of difficulty and different duration.
Where: At Sierras San Javier Park, 25 km from San Miguel de Tucumán (Tucumán)
