Puerta del Diablo
Two razor-thin red rock walls with a narrow gap between them. It is a signature stop on the horseback and off-road canyon routes around Tupiza.
Puerta del Diablo ('Devil's Door') consists of two nearly vertical, blade-thin conglomerate walls with a gap between them, resembling a gateway to hell. It lies a few kilometers west of town and is usually the first stop on the horse or off-road 'canyon route', followed by Valle de los Machos and Inca Canyon. You can walk there on your own, but route markings are sparse, so it is best to follow a guide or join a horse group.
