San Luis Argentina

Villa de Merlo is a popular destination in the Comechingones Mountain Range in the northeast region of the province with its rich plant life, abundant streams and woodlands.  It is dry and comfortable all year long because of its own microclimate created by the high atmospheric negative ions, which are said to promote good health. The hot thermal springs of Balde and San Jeronimo, both located less than 20 miles from the capital city offer therapeutic health benefits as well for arthritis, rheumatism, obesity and other chronic ailments with water temperatures of 102 to 109 degrees Fahrenheit (39 to 43 Celsius).

An interesting destination is the Sierra de las Quijadas National Park. Translated to  "Jaws Mountain Range",  this 370,600-acre park has many jagged geological formations in varying shades of red and gray, similar to America's Grand Canyon.

San Luis Airport (airport code = LUQ) is 4.5 miles/7km outside of the capital city.  Flights and car rental can be arranged from Buenos Aires and other cities in Argentina.  You can also find and compare rates on hotel accommodations and package deals to the province.
