Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Public Bus
Start your journey at Plaza Independencia, the central square of San Miguel de Tucumán. Look for the local bus stop, where you can catch bus number 12 or 14. These buses run frequently and will take you towards the outskirts of the city. Inform the driver that you are headed to the Funicular Trail, or simply ask to be dropped off at the nearest stop to 'Cerro San Javier'. The bus ride will take approximately 30 minutes.
Walking
Once you get off the bus, you will be at a stop on Avenida Aconquija. From there, walk towards the mountain, following the direction of the 'Cerro San Javier' signs. The trailhead for the Funicular Trail is approximately a 15-minute walk uphill. As you walk, enjoy the local landscape and keep an eye out for other hikers who can provide further guidance.
Taxi or Rideshare
If you prefer not to take the bus, you can call a taxi or use a rideshare app from any location in San Miguel de Tucumán. Simply request a ride to 'Cerro San Javier' and provide the driver with the address: Unnamed Road, Tucumán. The ride will take around 20 minutes, depending on traffic, and will drop you off closer to the Funicular Trail entrance.
