Begging to be explored, the less travelled northern regions of Argentina are an interesting mix of colonial heritage, incredible natural beauty, agriculture and an indigenous flavour. Two major Argentinean rivers, the Paraná and the Uruguay, flow together in the northeast of the country, creating the Rio de la Plata estuary as you can see in the Map of Northern Argentina. The land in between the rivers is known as Mesopotamia, a swampy, wet and sweltering region covered with yatay palms, orchids and tree ferns. One of the principal attractions in this region, the spectacular Iguazú Falls in the Iguazú National Park, are tucked away in the extreme northeast, bordered by Brazil. Lush forests bursting with wildlife and impressive, rugged mountains lie in contrast to the vast, fertile plains of the Pampas below.
Spread over a large portion of the country, the Pampas are known as the Gran Chaco in the North, and these plains form the agricultural heartland of Argentina, where gauchos (cowboys) roam and where the country famous beef comes from as its shown in the Map of Northern Argentina. The Gran Chaco is much drier than the central part of the Pampas and is a rich source of tannins and timber. Closer to the Chilean border in the west lies the impressive Andes Mountain Range and its highest peak, Cerro Aconcagua, situated in the famed wine region of Mendoza. The bustling city and industrial hub of Córdoba is where Jesuit traditions, colonial architecture and traditional gaucho culture combine, resulting in plenty of annual traditional festivals and local arts and crafts to be enjoyed. From the abundant natural treasures of the Iguazú National Park to the hidden tastes of Mendoza vineyards, there are many treasures to be found in the north by travellers willing to venture beyond Buenos Aires.
Northern Argentina is a special place, not only for their magical landscapes (multicolored mountains and gleaming salt flats) but also for its time-honored traditions and mystical culture. These are the lands of the people devoted to Mother Earth. Learn about things to do and how to get to the region. What Argentinians call “the north” usually refers to the province of Salta, Jujuy and Tucumán, located in the northwest of the country as its mentioned in the Map of Northern Argentina. Salta and Jujuy are the two main destinations of the region since both feature incredible natural landscapes, a wide history and a very powerful local culture focused on the care and worship of Pachamama (the “Mother Earth”). Salta, founded in 1582, is the starting point to explore northern Argentina. The province of Jujuy, located at the north of Salta, features the Humahuca Gorge, declared World Heritage by UNESCO and the Great Salt Flats, a white paradise that all should visit once in their life.

Including Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, Argentina southern half is a land rich in natural drama and mystery that could only be found at the end of the world. Gaze upon the enormous Perito Moreno Glacier in wonderful Los Glaciares National Park, near El Calafate, or take a boat trip in the Beagle Channel from Ushuaia, the world southernmost city as you can see in the Map of Southern Argentina. Based in the town of Puerto Madryn, you can easily get a first-hand look at some astounding marine life at Península Valdés; South America largest penguin colony nests onshore at Punta Tombo, a bit farther south. Farther north, Bariloche makes a convenient base for exploring the lake district of the Patagonian Andes, where several national parks beckon outdoor enthusiasts.
The southern region of Argentina is a fascinating mix of desert, ice-capped mountains, vast plains, sandy beaches and majestic glaciers. South of the Rio Colorado is the captivating Patagonia region, an area of diverse landscapes largely protected by a dozen national parks and reserves as its shown in the Map of Southern Argentina. Temperatures in the region can be extreme, from mild to well below zero and most visitors wisely choose to travel to Patagonia in summer. Patagonia is far from an icy wasteland, however. Bursting with wildlife, the area is also covered with large tracts of arable land (producing large amounts of fruit and vegetables), and is home to the country biggest oil and coal reserves. The coastline in the south has the warmest water in the country and a favoured destination is Las Grutas, a tourist-oriented beach resort on the Blue Gulf in the Rio Negro province. The area takes its name from the many caves dotted about the coastline, and provides visitors with an opportunity to sunbathe on the sheltered beaches, or enjoy plenty of watersports.
The southern coastline is also incredibly popular due to the large amounts of marine life that can be found here, from southern right whales to elephant seals, sea lions, and penguins, as well as an astounding array of birdlife. Continuing further south, one hits the world southern-most city, Ushuaia, situated on the Tierra del Fuego archipelago as its mentioned in the Map of Southern Argentina. This island territory (partly shared with Chile) is a favourite starting point for tours to Antarctica, but also offers plenty of activities and attractions for visitors, including trekking in the Andes in the western part of the archipelago, spectacular kayaking, some of the world best brown trout fishing, and Argentina only coastal national park. The southern region of Argentina is every bit as fascinating as the north and certainly has a lot to offer the intrepid traveller.
