For some of the most spectacular views of the city, head up to the top of Cerro San Bernardo (San Bernardo Hill) on foot or with a teleférico (cable car). If you plan on walking to the top, the path begins behind the Güemes Monument, while the cable car leaves from Parque San Martín, which is a pretty park overlooking the town and worth a stroll. At the top of the hill are a beautifully landscaped terraced garden with plenty of picnic spots, a monument to the Battle of Salta, a small market selling souvenirs, and several food vendors selling delicious local snack food. It’s a fantastic spot to enjoy a picnic on a sunny day or watch the sunset in the evenings.
