Argentina Cuesta de Miranda
This spectacular stretch of the legendary Route 40 has one of the most beautiful slopes in Argentina. Between Villa Unión and Chilecito, the paved corniche road ascends to 2000 meters above sea level and offers incredible views.
The Miranda River accompanies the route on this winding 12 km stretch, bordering it through a valley where the green of the mountains and cardones contrast with the red, ochre and orange of the soil.
