Landscapes of the Quebrada Carnival

Unesco World Heritage:
Quebrada de Humahuaca follows the line of a major cultural route, the Camino Inca, along the spectacular valley of the Rio Grande, from its source in the cold high desert plateau of the High Andean lands to its confluence with the Rio Leone some 150 km to the south. The valley shows substantial evidence of its use as a major trade route over the past 10,000 years. It features visible traces of prehistoric hunter-gatherer communities, of the Inca Empire (15th to 16th centuries) and of the fight for independence in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Internationally not as well known as Patagonia, this area has stolen our heart with its humble, friendly people and wild nature with mountains up to round 6500 mtrs. Large areas only accessible with a 4wd. The fertile Quebrada (gorge or ravine, cut out by the Rio Grande) is at an altitude between 2000 and 3000 mtrs and well accesible by car.

You can join us in februari at our Carnival trip to this beautiful area. Beside shooting people there will be plenty of time to visit and shoot the Quebrada. Check our website for more information; www.lvo-photo.com
