When you see many tourists on the streets of Buenos Aires, on a boat that goes to the lighthouse at the end of the world or on an excursion to the Iguazú Falls, it is not a coincidence. Argentina has incredible places in all its points, throughout the entire territory. But What are the most remote places in the country.
According to the Argentina portal, the country’s limits are marked by four extreme continental points.
In the north, it is the confluence of the rivers Great of San Juan and Mojinete, Province of Jujuy; in the south, Cabo San Pío on the Big Island of Tierra del Fuego; in the east, the town of Bernardo de Irigoyen, Province of Misiones, and in the west, the Los Glaciares National Park, in the Province of Santa Cruz.
Taking into account these four extremesyou can think of four remote but at the same time unmissable places to visit.
Four extreme points to visit in the country
The Quiaca. Located 290 kilometers from San Salvador de Jujuy, its connection with the entire country is National Route 9. It is estimated that there are about 500 accommodation places for tourism today.
In La Quiaca It is unmissable to visit the Municipal Market declared a historical monumentthen take a walk along the former railway – which operated until the 90s – and admire the architecture of the Church of Perpetual Help.
They claim that you have to go to the Manka Fiesta. This fair has been held since the end of the 19th century, it is usually held in the last days of October and hundreds of people go through it making purchases and bartering.
Iguazu Park. If we talk about the eastern point, we talk about Missions. And although the entire province has its charm, the most significant place is Iguazú. This place is protected within the Iguazú National Park, a huge forest subtropical. Iguazú Falls were chosen as one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of the World”.
The best time to visit the falls It is the season that runs from March to May and from October to December, when temperatures are milder. Although it is an area of very expensive hotels, there are also campsites, hostels and inns.
At the west end, you can see that there are a remote point in Los Glaciares National Park. And, without a doubt, it is one of the most wonderful places in the world.
UNESCO declared it a “World Heritage Site” and its most important spot is the Perito Moreno Glacier, not only to walk its meters and meters of walkways, but also to take a boat and look at all the small glaciers that are there.
The land connection is the Provincial Route 11but you usually get there on local flights from different parts of the country or with a stop in Buenos Aires if you come from abroad.
Ushuaia. This Argentine city is not only one of its extreme points, but one of the southernmost in the world. But, also, it is a beautiful place to visit. In the beginning it was a military and prison post, but later it developed as an international tourist destination.
He End of the world lighthouse, which is actually the Les Eclaireurs lighthouse, is the favorite postcard of many of those who navigate the waters of the Beagle. Battered by the strong winds of that area, it remains intact, standing like a guardian of the maritime passage that leads to the city.
