Beschreibung & Reiseverlauf




This estancia with its more than 3.000ha of own land i a perfect place to enjoy the beautiful landscape, the hills and the peace and quiet. Either you discover the surroundings on horseback, on foot or you relax in the garden.
Very close to the Estancia Alto Ongamira there are some historical sites and other places of interest. During your stay, visit Ischilin, the Fader Museum, Mount Uritorco or the Saint Catherine Jesuit Monastery.
The estancia is cosy and comfortably furnished. The rooms are large and bright and equipped with all modern comforts.
The large garden is the heart of the estancia. Here you can relax wonderfully after the ride. The pool provides refreshment.
Also the kitchen leaves nothing to be desired. For breakfast and tea there is homemade bread, pastries and croissants, as well as homemade jam from Donna Irene, fresh fruit juices and honey from the area. The chef conjures up refined country dishes from regional products. A typical Argentinean barbecue or the possibility to take a picnic lunch on a horseback ride round off the culinary experience.
At the stable the horses are already groomed and saddled and waiting for you.


 

Reiseverlauf





The riding program
There are riding facilities for everyone. From a two-hour ride to a full day ride. The ride takes you over gentle hills up to monumental rock formations. At the Moon Gorge you can watch condors in flight. A unique experience! In the evening you return to the estancia and enjoy a gourmet dinner and a restful sleep in a comfortable bed.

Examples of rides:
- Mount Colchequin (3-4 hours): You ride through the area where the Comechingones Indians fought their last battle against the Spanish. The view reaches far over the Ongamira Valley. Eagles, condors and falcons watch you. On top of the mountain is one of the few places outside the Andes where condors sleep and can often be seen at close range.

- To the river (4 hours): The ride takes you to the Copacabana River. You cross the river and ride again through a beautiful landscape. Soon you will be surrounded by palm trees, see wild donkeys and certainly many goats. The villagers make baskets and bags from palm leaves. During a rest on the sandy bank you can enjoy the beauty of the landscape, which is so different from other areas of the province of Cordoba.

- Ride to El Saucecito (5 hours): Here you will ride through shady green forests. The underground, the flora and the whole landscape will again present itself to you in a completely different way. On the ride you will cross several small creeks - ideal for splashing around a little.

- Piedra Parada (3 hours): You ride along a path that was laid out by a Russian engineer at the beginning of the 20th century. On the horizon you will see the big salt flats and some small villages. Usually you can observe native animals like foxes, hares and many different kinds of birds.

- Full moon ride (3 hours): You start after dinner. At full moon you will ride over the farmland, over Mount Aspero. An unforgettable experience!

- La Cascada Ride (3 hours): You ride cross-country. Your horses climb up and down until you reach a waterfall. In good weather this is a great place for a picnic!
