Cafayate

Another beautiful drive through a different desert landscape - this time on a very corrugated, dirt portion of the famous Route 40 – took us to Argentina’s “high altitude wine country”.
Cafayate is set in a valley of vineyards and surrounded by really beautiful rocky mountains - a more dramatic version of Palm Springs or Calistoga.
Because it was Christy’s birthday, we splurged a little and stayed at a nice resort on a vineyard. It was beautiful and provided great wildlife and bird watching. We saw 4 different foxes while here and Christy enjoyed galloping through the vineyards on a rented horse. John decided to walk around the town instead.En savoir plus
