La Fragua de estancia San Ramon
Follow your guide to an old countryside school converted to the ranch’s eating area. Inside the former school, ranch staff welcome you with a light breakfast. Next, you'll learn some horseback riding techniques from your expert guide who leads the way on a 2-hour journey into the Andes foothills. This riding is for begginers and experts. Pass a picturesque lake and ride through transition forests before reaching the Patagonian steppe. Keep your eyes peeled for autochthonous animals. After your ride, return to the ranch and dig into a 3-course lunch (a first course, a main course and a dessert) featuring Argentine asado. The feast of traditional barbecued meats comes with an open bar of wine, soft drinks and mineral water. Finishing this, enjoy transport back to your Bariloche hotel. If you select the afternoon tour, you will start off with lunch, then the horseback ride, and end with snacks. *Please note: If you have dietary restrictions, please note these when you book the tour.
