Represa del Ullum

The Ullum Gorge Dam is 18 kilometers away from San Juan and it's something you would never expect to find in the middle of a landscape of such arid mountains combined with water that will delight everyone who practices water sports. In the summer this place becomes a resort with excellent spas that are grouped in its surroundings. Hustle and bustle abounds on the sunny beaches, and hostels open their doors for you to have a drink there. The Howard Johonson is one of the places you can stay and it's in the vicinity. Ullum has become a popular destination in the past several years for people who want to come explore this different area in the middle of the Andes.
