Punilla Department, Administrative department in Córdoba Province, Argentina.
The Punilla Department extends across valleys and hills at 1337 meters elevation, with the Cosquín River flowing through multiple municipalities.
Founded in 1585, the territory was home to Comechingón indigenous communities who occupied the lands of present-day Santa María, Cosquín, and neighboring areas.
The National Folklore Festival in Cosquín brings together 100,000 visitors each year to celebrate Argentine folk music and traditional performances.
National Route 38 connects the department's municipalities, while the Tren de las Sierras railway line provides transportation services throughout the region.
Mineral resources from the Sierras contribute to the department's economy, with numerous extraction sites scattered across the mountainous terrain.
