Enjoy a unique experience, far from mass tourism, delving into the most authentic and wild side of Patagonia. On this true expedition in 4×4 vehicles, we will depart from El Calafate and head south to explore the most remote corners of the steppe, crossing unique landscapes with panoramic views of the Verlika and Baguales mountains, which mark the natural border with Chile.
During the tour, we will discover fossilized oyster reefs, chenques (ancient Tehuelche burial sites), and a wide variety of native fauna and flora, while learning about the history and geology of this ancient region.
The perfect ending will be at La Sección de la Estancia 25 de Mayo, where we will enjoy a Patagonian lunch or dinner in an authentic country house located 800 meters above sea level, with unparalleled views of the natural surroundings.
