Top 10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Cuyo, Cuyo

June 3, 2021 Phylicia Berquist

Most Argentinean wine is produced in the mountainous Cuyo region, and visiting oenophiles rave about their experiences here. Whether you take a packaged tour of vineyards or explore on your own (some TripAdvisor travelers recommend renting a bike!), you’re sure to come home with amazing memories… and probably a new favorite Malbec.

Potrerillos Dam

Reviewed By LucasCasavalle - Buenos Aires, Argentina

Astonishing place, just 1 hour from Mendoza city, if you can go by car is better because you can freely choose between stops and the distances are far for walking. On the other hand you can take a bus (AR$81 by ticket) and hop off on the second stop (the first one after Cacheuta). The Dam itself its a marvelous lake with blue waters and high mountains you can see the Aconcagua from certain places.It becomes the perfect activity for a whole day, pack some food, beverages and a speaker if you want, invite some friends over and enjoy. Just be cautious of the sun there is no shading. Some spots has kayak and other rental activities for the day.

Puente del Inca

Reviewed By 306mar_aagustinag - Glew, Argentina

The Inca's bridge is a rocky formation that forms a natural bridge over Las Cuevas river, it's the most pleasant place I have ever been. It's quiet and beautiful. The best part is the friendliness of the people who live in the surrounding villages. I highly recommend it.

Cristo Redentor De Los Andes

Reviewed By 343redas_ - Vilnius, Lithuania

We have visited this place yesterday (22 May, 2018). We were traveling from Argentina to Chile and it was a bit difficult to find turn to the road. My advice is to trust google maps and go by directions. Turn to the left is not seen at all. We have made trip through tunnel, paid 30$, turned arround, went back, found road and after that we have paid 30$ once again for using tunnel to go to chile :) That was worth of it! Road was excellent, driving tooked approx.40min to go up, no cars was on the road, neither on the top. We were only one visitors, everything was closed and you can feel pure silence and beauty of mountains. Few meters of road was covered by melting ice, but we saw that road from Chile side was covered with ice and snow fully, do not recommend to go from that side. We came back the same way, made lots of photos. You can go by standard car, just need to pay attention on the road, there are some rocks where standard car can be hitten because of its hight

Reviewed By juanpW68HX

This beautiful french iron wrought gates were damaged a couple of years ago but subsequently repaired and painted. Are very attractive and a good opening for the wonderful park that lays behind, and right in front of the Marley horses.
