Santa Victoria Oeste is a municipality and head of the Santa Victoria Department, at the northwest corner of the province of Salta, Argentina, between mountains and valleys on the border with the Republic of Bolivia, 540 km from the city of Salta.[1]

It lies on the western edge of the jungles of the Yungas, north of the province of Salta, in the exact spot where the woods begin to melt at each step with grasslands Prepuna emerges as a vision the people, at 2,400 meters.

It is a picturesque village nestled between the mountains, west of the hills Bravo and San Jose, and east, the ridge of hills Shipyards, Paraguay and Vallecito, a cover lifted into the lush Yungas forests. And at the intersection of rivers Acoyte and La Huerta.
