In northwestern Argentina<\/a><\/strong>, Jujuy is adding a new proposal to its tourism offer with the launch of the Tren del Vino. On July 26, 2026, the Tren Solar de la Quebrada<\/strong> will inaugurate this wine tourism experience combining train travel, tastings, bodegas and high-altitude wines. <\/p>\n\n

The initiative comes at the right time. The Ruta del Vino Jujuy<\/strong> was named best wine route and received three distinctions<\/mark><\/a> at the WineXplorers Awards 2026<\/mark><\/a><\/strong>, giving greater visibility to a wine region that remains less known internationally than Mendoza <\/a><\/strong>or Salta<\/strong>. With the Tren del Vino, this recognition takes on an easy-to-understand format: a day organized around wine, landscapes and local producers. <\/p>\n\n

The Tren Solar de la Quebrada<\/a><\/strong> occupies a distinct place in the country\u2019s tourism offer. Presented as Latin America\u2019s first solar train<\/strong>, it runs on solar energy with an announced autonomy of 100 to 120 kilometers. <\/p>\n\n

This sustainable dimension is not only technical. In a region where distances, altitude and reliefs are fully part of the journey, the train offers a gentler way to travel through the listed landscapes of the Quebrada de Humahuaca<\/strong>, a UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/mark><\/a>. The journey itself then becomes part of the experience, rather than a simple transfer between two stops. <\/p>\n\n

The Tren del Vino<\/a> program begins in Volc\u00e1n, after transfers offered from Salta<\/strong>, San Salvador de Jujuy<\/strong> or Tilcara<\/strong>. On board, guides and sommeliers accompany travelers and introduce the specific characteristics of the Ruta del Vino Jujuy: grape varieties, growing conditions, altitudes and the differences between wines from the valleys and those produced higher in the Andes. <\/p>\n\n

The first stop takes place in Tumbaya, with a tasting offered by Antropo Wines<\/em> and Bodega El Molle<\/em>. The route then continues toward Purmamarca, where Amanecer Andino<\/em> welcomes passengers for a food and wine pairing lunch and a visit to the bodega. <\/p>\n

Later, the stop in Maimar\u00e1 offers the chance to discover other wine profiles with Bodega Yanay<\/em> and Fernando Dupont<\/em>, one of the most recognized names in regional viticulture. The train then continues to Bodega El Bayeh<\/em>, for a tasting and guided visit, before arriving in Tilcara, where the Tren Solar Wine Shop closes the day with a selection of wines from the province. <\/p>\n\n

The value of the format lies in its simplicity: the entire experience is brought together in a single day, making it easier to access bodegas that can sometimes be more difficult to combine separately.<\/p>\n\n

The Tren del Vino also tells another side of Jujuy. The province is not seeking to reproduce the model of the major neighboring wine regions. Its wines belong to a different environment, at high altitude, in dry and mineral valleys where growing conditions give local productions a very distinct identity. <\/p>\n\n

For travelers, this experience offers another way to approach the region. Purmamarca, Maimar\u00e1 and Tilcara are no longer only stops associated with Andean landscapes: they also become places of production, tasting and encounter with the people who bring this wine route to life. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

The launch of the Tren del Vino forms part of a broader evolution of the Tren Solar. The train already offers an experience called Cielo en Movimiento<\/strong>, a night outing scheduled between June and September 2026 around astronomical observation, stories linked to the Andean sky, dinner under the stars and an evening train ride. <\/p>\n\n

These formats show how the train is gradually moving beyond the role of railway attraction. It is becoming a support for organizing experiences around what the region offers most specifically: its villages, its sky, its local productions, its landscapes and a form of mobility designed with a more limited impact. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

With the Tren del Vino, Jujuy is therefore adding a clear proposal to its offer: a day around high-altitude wines, supported by a solar train and local producers. A way to make the journey part of the travel experience, by connecting the landscape with what is produced, tasted and told in northern Argentina. <\/p>\n\n
