The best time to go to El Rodeo is during the warmer months, roughly from November to April, when the weather is ideal for outdoor activities.
During this period, you'll experience pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from the mid-20s to low-30s Celsius, great for exploring the natural beauty of the Catamarca Province. This is when the rivers are full, and the landscapes are lush, making it ideal for hiking, horseback riding, and enjoying the river.
Couples looking for a romantic getaway will find this season particularly appealing. The long, sunny days provide ample opportunity for scenic drives through the mountains, picnics by the river, or simply relaxing together in a picturesque setting. Many of the local guesthouses and estancias are fully operational, offering a full range of services and activities.
Families travelling with children will also appreciate the warmer months. The rivers offer opportunities for swimming and splashing, and the trails are accessible for family-friendly walks.
