Garganta del Diablo — Attraction in Municipio de Tilcara

The best part is the trekking to get to the waterfall! Leaving from Tilcara, get to the Puente Ferroviaro de Tilcara, then take the left road and keep going straight! After that, you will see lots of signals indicating the trekking path. This is around 4km and it will take around 1.5h/2h depending on your physical condition. Overall it is a medium-high level of difficulty: the first part of the path is more steep while it levels out after less than 1km. You will get then to the entrance where you need to pay 2000pesos per person. It will take another 600mts to get to the waterfall, after climbing a few rocks and crossing the small rivers. Overall the full trekking (coming back to Tilcara) would take around 4/5hours. There is also a viewpoint but you will get better view during the walk! Alternatively you can take your car (8km to get to the entrance) but I would strongly suggest the trekking walk since you will enjoy la Quebrada de Tilcara and the amazing landscap...

Great. The way back is mostly uphill, although not very difficult (but not very easy as well), something like six kilometers from the town center along the wonderful desert landscape here. Entrance costs 4000 pesos. When you arrive, there is one waterfall that is not at its peak at this time of year, although it's shape is uniqueb. From there you go left for something like 600 meters on a spectacular path, along a flowing stream, rocks of different colors and very beautiful textures, until you reach the second waterfall, which is very beautiful. A trip that is well worth doing, in fact most people come to the beautiful Tilcara...

Very nice walk to the falls, beautiful nature trail. As others noted it's not the largest waterfall but it's beautiful. It cost 1000 pesos ($1) to enter but that seemed a very reasonable fee, they do a great job maintaining the trail and keeping the area clean.

The only negative for me was the road up is a bit rough, not the worst we've been on but not the best. It was quite narrow and winding at points and as this is a fairly popular spot that means having to negotiate passing a number of times as you drive up and down. My wife is not a fan of heights and this road was definitely...
