Villa General Belgrano

Villa General Belgrano is a scenic mountain town in the Calamuchita Valley of Córdoba province. It was founded in the 1930s by two Germans and later settled by a wave of European immigrants, which is clearly reflected in its distinctive Bavarian-style architecture. The town is most famous for hosting the National Beer Festival (Oktoberfest), which ranks among the largest in the world outside of Germany. Visitors can enjoy traditional Central European cuisine, craft beer, and exquisite artisan chocolate. The surrounding hills offer excellent opportunities for hiking, horseback riding, and birdwatching. The best time to visit is during October for the animated festival or during spring and autumn for pleasant outdoor weather. It is easily reachable by bus or car from Córdoba city.
