Camino de las Altas Cumbres — Villa Carlos Paz to Mina Clavero.
Córdoba's most loved riding road. Provincial Route 14 climbs from the lakeside resort of Villa Carlos Paz onto the Pampa de Achala — a 2,000m granite plateau where condors soar over the Quebrada del Condorito gorge. The descent into the Traslasierra valley drops through Cuesta de los Caracoles to Mina Clavero, with a finishing flourish into the riverside village of Nono.
