Description

El Negrito in Tafí del Valle, Tucumán is a stunning and challenging summit all hikers and mountaineers will love. This fantastic peak in the Cumbres Calchaquíes of Argentina offers breathtaking views and an exciting ascent opportunity.

Tafí del Valle is a charming small town in Tucumán, in the northwest of Argentina. This high altitude spot is famous for offering all sorts of outdoor sports, such as horseback riding, hiking and mountain biking. It is also a beautiful place to buy local crafts and try local food, including the famous empanadas of Tucumán.

To ascend El Negrito, we’ll begin at “El infiernillo” (3,000 m) and hike for 3-4 hours up to 3,700 meters above sea level. We’ll camp for the night. The following day, we’ll hike for 10 to 12 hours more to reach the summit (4,660 meters) and descend the mountain.

I recommend this trip to people in good physical shape, with some experience in the high mountains ready for a unique experience. The best time to do this hike is during the winter months when the weather is cold and dry, though the climb can be done year round. Be aware that the summer is really humid.

So, what are you waiting for? Book your trip now and let the adventure begin. Enjoy this exhilarating adventure to the top of El Negrito summit in Tucumán!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
