Horses and horse drawn carriages can be rented very inexpensively at the top of Avenue Eden near the entrance of Hotel Eden and they will take tourists on a tour of spectacular historical home sites, most of which are occupied today from the 1920-1940s featuring mixed mountain architectural styles from European influences.

The main street and hub of activity for the town is "Avenue Eden" and it has many shops, restaurants and artisan stores. Avenue Eden is often blocked off to car traffic in the evenings during the summer months for pedestrian traffic, concerts, children's shows and other events. These events include a nationally famous Tango Festival in November, an antique automobile shows, numerous music festivals from rock to traditional tunes. the local parish Beyond Eden Avenue, there are a large number of attractions to see. Famous attractions in La Falda include the 7 Cascades. This beautiful natural park also hosts a large public swimming pool and visitors can wade into the river at the base of the waterfalls. Another famed site is "El Silenco" which is a colonial castle of the 17th century featuring unique architecture, fishing and observation of trout and it is situated six miles from La Falda downtown. Biologically minded folks will enjoy, "Tatu Carreta", an Ecological Park & Zoo, which is located 5 miles from the downtown on the route toward Cordoba City. It is a drive thru "safari" style zoological experience with hundreds of local and exotic animal species wandering in the park. Other popular local activities include para sailing, 4x4 off roading /road rallies, camping, hiking, mountain biking on numerous scenic trails, fishing, and dove hunting. For craft and bargain hunters, during summer months there are often tents/flea market style booths with artisan crafts from all over Argentina along the old railroad tracks at the bottom of Avenue Eden. However, the most famous reason for visiting La Falda is just relaxation and sight seeing...after all, "La Falda," translated into English, means "The Lap" which describes it being nestled at the base of a beautiful mountain setting and its ability to cradle visitors in a quaint mountain setting. To really appreciate the view, follow the dirt road that starts at Hotel Eden and travel up the mountain is a spectacular drive winding uphill to a scenic overlook of the entire city. Although its not paved, it is groomed and suitable for standards cars in all but the heaviest of rain.
