A little summer resort town in Argentina's Punilla Valley, Valle Hermoso draws visitors to its clear rivers and balnearios — riverside bathing spots — set against mountain terrain around 1,000 metres up. Tourism peaks from December through February, when the population roughly doubles. The historic Hotel Vaquerías, over a century old, sits in a hillside niche with artesian springs, swimming, and horseback riding, and the surrounding La Reserva Natural de Vaquerías protects the area's natural environment.
