About this tour

We will start this experience heading about 40 minutes from Coyhaique, or 25 minutes from the Balmaceda airport, we will find a private ranch that offers us a unique experience, rescuing the customs and traditions of the country people, called "Gaucho".

We will have the opportunity to participate in the various typical activities of the Patagonian Countryside. We will learn about the history of the place and the surroundings while enjoying a tasty snack with local recipes and products.

We will see the typical Gaucho live and in person, he will show us all his accessories, such as the Beret, the Neckerchief, the Wine Boot, etc.

Of course, part of this unique countryside experience includes interacting with the lambs, learning about the work of corrals, among others.

As the icing on the cake, we will learn about the creation of the Great Monument to Patagonia, where we can leave our name stamped (at an additional cost). This great work of art was created to raise awareness of the importance of taking care of our planet and doing our part in reforestation with native trees.

To live this complete country experience, we cannot miss enjoying a well-deserved Asado al Palo, together with the people of the estancia and possibly other visitors.

After a day of culture and enjoyment, we will return to our hotels in Coyhaique.
