Discover the beautiful Andean landscapes of Argentina with this fantastic private trip to the refuge of Los Manantiales. Along the way, you'll also encounter a wide variety of the region's beautiful fauna and flora.
Los Manantiales Refuge Private Trip
We will pick you up at your hotel in Barreal at 10 am before driving in an all-terrain jeep to the foothills of the majestic Andean mountain range which separates Argentina and Chile.
First of all, we will visit the mountain pass that General José de San Martín crossed. This historic event, which took place on January 17, 1817, marked the beginning of the campaign for the independence of Peru, Chile, and Argentina. After learning about this period, we will continue the route through Las Hornillas.
We will drive in the 4x4 vehicle, through rivers, over mountain passes, and along rocky roads. Eventually, we arrive at Los Manantiales: a refuge situated at 11,000 feet above sea level. From this privileged point, we will enjoy excellent views of the entire mountain range, which will captivate you forever!
We will have a nice picada de campo while enjoying the view from Los Manantiales. After lunch, we'll begin our return journey. Along the way, we may spot some of the wonderful local wildlife, including wild horses and condors hovering high up in the sky.
Halfway back, we'll stop for a light snack and finally drop you off at your hotel at 6 pm.
