Itinerary


The tour starts at 18:30, with a transfer from Coyhaique to Punta del Monte ranch. In the way you'll pass by Dos Lagunas Natural Monument, witnessing an abrupt transition in the natural scene, from a green environment to a steppe, where the ranch is located.

Upon your arrival you'll be welcomed with a cocktail and a toast in the main house. Later on, you'll get to see how a cattling ranch works in Patagonia, walking through its facilities, among sheep, alpacas, wild boars, and shepherd dogs.

At night you'll try homemade food and enjoy the atmosphere of a traditional family reunion. Before going to bed you'll have the chance to appreciate the firmament in its entirety, an experience you will never forget.

Breakfast at 5:30am.

Maté and coffee for waking up, homemade bread, jam, cheese and country eggs will give you the necessary strength for a long day. After breakfast you'll go in 4x4 vehicles through the interior roads of the ranch.

You'll arrive at "Las Condoreras", a place located 17km away from the ranch. After getting off the vehicle and walking silently, you'll see the king of birds in its natural habitat: the condor.
In this beautiful lanscape you'll be able to see and photograph (from a very short distance) the slow awakening of the condors and the big leap they take to cross the sky.

When you return by midday you'll be welcomed with a traditional barbecue. After lunch, there is a short horse ride through the surrounding areas of the ranch.

Then you'll head towards the Swan lake to see the variety of wild birds that inhabit it. You'll discover beautiful species like the coscoroba swan, upland goose, great bustard, and a great variety of ducks, red-gartered coot and other species like the austral flamingo.

18:30 return to the hotel in Coyhaique. Accommodation
