Full-birding day trip by one of the most beautiful national parks of Argentina, which protects an area of the arid Monte scrublands with a huge columnar cacti forest as well as a fog grassland environment of the Yungas ecoregion. These ecosystems together hold some of the bird specialties of the high Andes’ EBA (BirdLife’s Endemic Bird Area) plus some of the endemic birds to Argentina.
