In the Footsteps of Salto's Writers

Words that were born in Salto. Few cities of this size have given a literature three names like Horacio Quiroga, Enrique Amorim and Marosa di Giorgio — all born here, all shaped by this river town. This guided walk, known locally as Tras la huella de la literatura, follows their trail through the city they grew up in.

What's Included

  • Guided walk with a local guide, following the writers' trail through the city
  • The lives and work of Horacio Quiroga, Enrique Amorim and Marosa di Giorgio, told where they happened
  • Stories and context along the way — no reading required beforehand
  • Circuits adapted to the group: schools, book clubs, families, friends
