This online program for the promotion and development of nature tourism throughout the country “has already obtained financing from the Inter-American Development Bank for 33 million dollars to continue strengthening the infrastructure of our destinations,” they told Télam from that ministry.
The Nature Route also offers 50 experiences to experience naturewhich can be through astronomical, adventure, paleontological, nature tourism in an urban setting, bird watching and wildlife sighting in general.
In addition, it contains a section on scenic routes (national and provincial) and information about national parks, which in many cases are also home to “must see” sites and are the setting for recommended experiences.
Each “must see” has detailed and updated information on what to do in the place, how to get there, the best time to go, where to sleep and many other practical recommendations.
Camping under the stars; walk on glaciers; encounters with whales, capybaras and penguins, and tours of the jungle, the puna or estuaries, are part of the experiences that are proposed in natural environments, but also in urban spaces such as the Costanera Sur Ecological Reserve, in the City of Buenos Aires , which is one of the “must see”.
Unmissable routes
The 17 Routes proposals are those of the Patagonian Sea, Austral Patagonia, Andean Patagonia, the End of the World, the Steppe, the Puna, the Missionary Forest, the Iberá, the Gran Chaco, the Plains and the Atlantic Coast, of the High Andes, of the Deserts and Volcanoes, of the Coast and the Great Rivers, of the White Continent, of the Central Sierras, of the Delta and the Route of the Valleys, Quebradas and Yungas.

Nature Calendar
Another of the innovative products of the website is the Nature Calendar, which invites you to discover what species of animals, plants and natural phenomena can be seen in each place in Argentina, month by month.
About the launch of this website, The Minister of Tourism and Sports explained that the work is due to the fact that “nature tourism is in great demand in this new stage and Argentina has unique wonders.”
Lammens added that “with this focus, we carry out the ‘La Ruta Natural’ program, both to promote promotion in emerging and consolidated destinations and to promote the sustainable development of each of their communities.”
The site, which was developed with the support of the National Tourism Promotion Institute, will also be available in English and Portuguese in the coming weeks.
“If you want to travel around Argentina, enjoy nature, get to know incredible places and experience adventures throughout the country, the brand new website is ideal for you to start dreaming and planning your trips,” exhorts the Tourism portfolio in its presentation of La Ruta Natural .
