The beautifully preserved colonial city of Salta is a perfect base from which to explore the altiplano of Argentina. The fertile Salta valley is surrounded by high, windswept altiplano is punctuated by stark volcanic peaks and saltwater lakes. The historic Tren a las Nubes, or Train to the Clouds, puffs out of the Salta foothills and climbs a height of nearly 14,000 feet above sea level to the Chilean Andes. A bird watcher's paradise, the waters of the altiplano are often tinged with huge flocks of flamingos, while condors, ibises and many other species of birds also make the arid expanses their home. The southwest part of the region basks in a gentle climate ideal for wine production and is easily visited from the many estancias near Salta.
