Ischigualasto Provincial Park, also called Valle de la Luna ("Valley of the Moon" or "Moon Valley"), due to its moon like appearance, is a provincial protected area in the north-east of San Juan Province, north-western Argentina, limiting to the north with the Talampaya National Park, in La Rioja Province. Both areas belong to the same geological formation, the Ischigualasto Formation (sometimes called the Ischigualasto-Talampaya Formation). Established on 3 November 1971, the park has an area of 60,370 ha (603.7 km2; 233.1 sq mi).
In 2000, UNESCO included Ischigualasto and Talampaya National Park among its World Heritage Sites. (Wikipedia)
It is known for stunning geological formations. From the visitors center, there is an unpaved road circuit that visits the highlights. Camping is available.

The landscape is wonderfully formed. You can either take a bus through the countryside or talk to people who will give you a ride in their car. You always drive through the countryside in a convoy. Very worthwhile.
