Located to the southwest of the City of Córdoba, the most important city in the micro-region called Paravachasca is Alta Gracia. Famous for its micro climate and for having been the home of renowned Che Guevara, this small village of Córdoba perfectly conveys the different features and tourist possibilities of the entire area.
Dams like Los Molinos, reservoirs and mountain rivers, sanctuaries and churches, as well as vestiges of the Jesuit culture -among which Alta Gracia Jesuit Estancia stands out- are some of the must visit attractions.
