Colón, E.R.

After spending three days in Colón, I have found it to be a very relaxed and charming little town. It is a good place to stop in for a couple of days, to break up the long trip north. The population is around 19,200 and the town, like most in Argentina, is set out in a grid. A map of Colón can be found here. I turned up at the one HI affiliated youth hostel without booking ahead. Fortunately, I had the place to my self. Marcela, “la dueña” (the owner) was welcoming, helpful and full of information. There are a couple of photos of the hostel and around and about Colón the photos page.
