Description
Begin with pickup from your hotel in Mendoza around 10:00 AM. Travel for 20 minutes until you reach the ranch. Start your first day with 4 hours of horse riding in the Andes. Take a short training session with your horse, if you are a beginner. Great opportunity to take incredible photos of some of the local fauna such as condors and eagles throughout the first day, with a stop for a snack during the afternoon. Return to the camp where the local gauchos will welcome you to your lodgings for the next 1/2 nights. Settle in and enjoy a delicious complete Argentinian BBQ. Enjoy your dinner by the bonfire, with some melodies played by the gauchos guitar. On your second day, start with breakfast at 10:00 AM and embark on a trail which takes you 2500-meters above sea level. With a little luck we will enjoy the sighting of guanacos, andean foxes, andean condors and ostriches. Return to the ranch for another night of traditional argentinean food and songs by the fire.
On the final day, start with breakfast at 10:00 AM and then, enjoy 4-5 hours of riding before returning to the ranch for a farewell complete BBQ lunch. Be returned to your hotel in Mendoza at approximately 5:00 PM.
