TREN A LAS NUBES

Go there and contact
Little blue train travels over the 63-meter-high Polvorilla viaduct from San Antonio de los Cobres.
Unfortunately, the Tren a las Nubes is no longer as majestic as it once was. It's only a short distance from San Antonio de los Cobres, which you reach by bus from Salta (you can drive yourself if you have a car). The journey, while truly magnificent, is marred by the "mass tourism" created by the six crowded buses that follow one another to reach San Antonio de los Cobres. Nevertheless, it's a lovely attraction, especially the Polvorilla viaduct, where you'll be suspended 63 m high in the little blue train.
