The adventure starts at the antique sheep shearing shed where the walking tour begins through trekking paths that lead to the lagoon “Laguna de los Pajaros” and the lake “Lago Argentino”. The expedition to our nature reserve includes bird watching of over 40 migrating species which visit us from the beginning of Spring and which often nest in the reserve by the lagoon. The tour continues to the ancient Indian camping ground where archeologists from the University of La Plata have been excavating and studying their culture.
