Sierra de Velasco

Sierra de Velasco is a mountain range in the Argentine province of La Rioja. Sierra de Velsco runs from north to south just west of the city of La Rioja and east of Chilecito.

The western part of Sierra de Velasco captures during summer moist air from the Atlantic allowing some sub-tropical forests to grow on it.
