A tour through the old town can be combined with a trip on the famous "Tren a las nubes", (train in the clouds) which goes through the majestic valleys and gorges of remote rural towns in the province, moving to heights 4,200 meters above sea level. Additionally, the tourist will be able to taste the harvests of the wineries of the area.
