Santa Rosa de Calamuchita is a small village in the province of Córdoba, Argentina. It had about 10,000 inhabitants at the 2001 census [INDEC]. The village is located in the central part of the Calamuchita Valley, surrounded by hills (the Sierras), rivers, and lakes, which makes the area a major tourist attraction. The village has a Mediterranean climate, characterized by warm summers with considerable rainfall, where temperatures can exceed 35°C, and cold, dry winters with minimum temperatures dropping below zero. Other important nearby towns in the Valley are Villa General Belgrano and Embalse (the latter is home to a nuclear power plant).
