The Quebrada de Los Sosa is a narrow, winding gorge cut by the Los Sosa river for some thirty kilometres through dense yungas cloud forest, part of the Los Sosa Nature Reserve and the gateway of the road climbing from the Tucumán plains to the Tafí valley. The river running through it drops from about two thousand metres to four hundred on the plain. Provincial Route 307 climbs alongside the river between green walls of trees, ferns and mosses, often wrapped in cloud and mist, with streams and small falls dropping from the mountains beside the road and the river roaring between big boulders. As it rises, the damp forest gradually gives way to open mountain grassland near Tafí. The road is free and part of the classic trip from San Miguel de Tucumán to Tafí del Valle, with viewpoints to stop and take photos.
