Horseback riding through the Sierras

We visited this place in November and it exceeded all expectations! We were greeted with warmth and hospitality, and started the day with a 1.5 hour ride that gave us a great experience of the farm's beautiful surroundings. After the ride we were served a lovely lunch with full grilled pork. The food was fantastic – everything was produced locally, from the tasty cheese to the fresh vegetables grown on the farm. After lunch it seemed for a longer ride of 2.5 hours. This tour took us through the whole area and gave us a unique opportunity to experience nature and the atmosphere around the farm in a very special way. This was an experience we will soon forget. We warmly recommend this place to anyone who wants a combination of great nature experiences, lovely food and genuine hospitality. Thank you for a memorable visit!

It was the most unforgettable experience in Argentina. Salvadore took care of everything, starting with super clear instructions on how to get to his ranch. He then served yerba mate and coffee, showed us all the animals on his ranch, and organized the first horseback ride around the breathtaking area. Later, he served delicious Argentinian wine and homemade barbecue: the best beef steak I’ve ever eaten, accompanied by grilled and fresh vegetables and fruit for dessert. Afterward, a short nap in a super comfy hammock, accompanied by the sounds of nature, prepared us for a second ride, during which he took lots of photos and videos. At the end, he drove me to the bus station and helped with buying tickets. His perfect English, great personality, and sense of humor made that day the best day in Argentina. ❤️ Thank you, Salva!"

What an incredible experience! Salvador is an incredible host. His horseback riding operation is a small, warm-hearted, family-like atmosphere that consists of students, guests, horses, cats, dogs, chickens and pigs. From the moment you arrive, Salvatore makes you feel at home. Coffee, tea and delicious sweets (alfajores, I think) are served outdoors while the horses are made ready. You will be matched to horse that suits your skill level and size and everything is done at an easy pace to make sure everyone is comfortable. Salvador is a warm-hearted and personable, easy going soul - he is head goucho, master BBQ chef, and tour guide as he takes people of all ages through the Sierra foothills on beautiful horses. The horses are used to the trail, so the riding is interesting but relaxing. The hills offer a wide variety of scenery/greenery and there are several lookoffs with expansive and incredible views. Lunch was a a delicious BBQ, salad, some beer, followed by tea and more sweets, with a good number of languages thrown into the mix (Spanish, French and English). After lunch, we took a short siesta/rest in the hammocks and then we had another great ride in the afternoon. What a wonderful day overall. Salvador deserves top marks and I highly recommend this lovely experience.
