El Negrito in Tafí del Valle, Tucumán is a stunning and challenging summit all hikers and mountaineers will love. This fantastic peak in the Cumbres Calchaquíes of Argentina offers breathtaking views and an exciting ascent opportunity.
Tafí del Valle is a charming small town in Tucumán, in the northwest of Argentina. This high altitude spot is famous for offering all sorts of outdoor sports, such as horseback riding, hiking and mountain biking. It is also a beautiful place to buy local crafts and try local food, including the famous empanadas of Tucumán.
To ascend El Negrito, we’ll begin at “El infiernillo” (3,000 m) and hike for 3-4 hours up to 3,700 meters above sea level. We’ll camp for the night. The following day, we’ll hike for 10 to 12 hours more to reach the summit (4,660 meters) and descend the mountain.
I recommend this trip to people in good physical shape, with some experience in the high mountains ready for a unique experience. The best time to do this hike is during the winter months when the weather is cold and dry, though the climb can be done year round. Be aware that the summer is really humid.
So, what are you waiting for? Book your trip now and let the adventure begin. Enjoy this exhilarating adventure to the top of El Negrito summit in Tucumán!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
