  • 1. Cerro Uritorco Capilla Del Monte
    Cerro Uritorco is a mountain and highest peak of the Sierras Chicas chain in the northwest of the province of Córdoba, Argentina. It is located next to the Calabalumba River, three km from the center of the city of Capilla del Monte, and its summit is at 1,949 m above mean sea level. The name Uritu urqu means Male Hill in Santiago del Estero Quichua, which is, however, not the aboriginal Comechingón language. Uritorco is under private administration, and can be accessed by the public for a small fee. It is considered a medium-difficulty ascent, taking around three hours to reach the top provided the appropriate hiking path is followed. In 2012, the mountain was closed on December 21, as a mass suicide had been proposed on Facebook to take place there due to the 2012 phenomenon.
