Trekking
A local guide accompanies you along the jungle trails. You'll see native trees, learn to identify animal tracks, and with a little luck spot one of the Yungas' inhabitants: toucan, pavo del monte, yapu, and more.
First Steps in the Jungle
Follow the marked trails through the trees down to the colorado stream. Look up and you might spot a mountain turkey or a woodpecker. This walk is accessible for the whole family.
Yungas Immersion Trek
The Yungas are home to 50% of Argentina's biodiversity: birds, mammals and reptiles, some of them endangered, such as the tapir.
On this hike, your guide will teach you to identify the different sounds of the jungle: the calls of toucans, the chirping of birds, the song of cicadas. With a little patience, you'll be able to spot birds high up in the canopy and learn to observe them through binoculars.
As you approach the waterways, you may come across mammal tracks, especially during the dry season. Pumas, peccaries, tapirs, marsh deer, mountain wolves and anteaters come at dusk to drink from these pools.
A picnic break by the river is included. If the weather allows, you'll be able to swim in natural pools surrounded by trees.
Wildlife Spotting Initiation
Your guide takes you to the secret corners only he knows. Throughout the day he teaches you to identify tracks left by wild animals: mountain wolf, tapir, capybara, puma and others. With binoculars, you'll learn to observe the emblematic birds of the Yungas (over 400 species!) and recognise their characteristic calls: the green macaw, the surucuá, the large toucan, the king of the forest and the comet hummingbird. Picnic included.
