Description

Welcome to this trekking day through the wonderful “Trail of Colors”.

This trekking program is suitable for all level of people who want to enjoy a hike in Tilcara and Maimara. All you will need is a good physical condition.

Although it is a hike without any technical difficulty, you should consider some important points. One of them is that the trek will take us about 4 walking hours (8 km). In addition, you must face some slight ascents and descents. Finally, each participant must load his/her own backpack with some food and water.

I organize daily departures to Tilcara and Maimara all year round. The group size must be more than 3 participants. We’ll start the hike at 9 AM and finish it at around 3 PM.

As for the itinerary, we will leave Tilcara in the morning following a trail towards Punta Corral. We’ll walk uphill until we reach to the 2900-meter “4th Calvary”. With some stunning views of the Quebrada de Huichaira we will cross the crevasse between Tilcara and Maimara. We’ll stop for lunch and rest.

The trek continues in direction to the Dupont Winery, at the foot of the Paleta del Pintor (Painter’s Palette) mountain and some Chicapa’s cultivation fields. On our way back we will cross the Rio Grande (river) several times to reach Tilcara again. The program ends once you’re at your hotel.

    Mountain Guide

    AAGM Mountain Guide from Argentina.

    I was born in Catamarca province, land of 6000m peaks (los seismiles), such as Pissis and Ojos del Salado.

    I now live in Tilcara, Jujuy, located in the 'Quebrada de Humahuaca' a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    I guide mountaineering, trekking, horse riding and multi adventure trips in Argentina's North and North-West region.

    When guiding, my objective is to provide confidence and safety to my clients, and by the end of the trip to say goodbye as friends.

    What people are saying about Explore-Share

    Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

    Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

    We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

    Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
