Sumario:An updated contribution to the knowledge on the altitudinal management of the environment and its relationship with the perception, use and management of plant resources by transhumant cattle farmers, in an area of the eastern mountain range of the NW of the province of Salta. The local inhabitants belong to indigenous peoples of the Kolla ethnic affiliation and present socio-economic characteristics related to the peasant category. The domestic units have a seasonal mobility linked to the transhumance of cattle between the Yungas and Altoandino environments present at the various altitudinal floors to which they have access. Based on an ethnobiological approach, the main environmental units involved in the annual management, the ethnospecies present, their uses and associated practices were recorded.
