To get to this Estancia you must take the debris road on the south of the city, frequently used by tourists and neighbours and in perfect condition all year round.
Estancia San Guillermo is a very important refference in your knowledge of Patagonia. Originally built for sheepherding tasks, these rural facilities are now used to offer a new vision of the natural wonders of the region. |
Here you can do several activities related to life in the countrysde in permanent contact with nature. You can ride a horse and travel around the farm or go to Lobería de Punta Loma and see the sea wolves.
Another option is to go hiking and visit the pigs breeding sector, then down through deep creeks covered by the sea some 20.000.000 years ago and observe and touch the fossils, in a singular biology and paleontology lesson. |
|
The main attraction in the estancia is undoubtedly the educative talk and the shearing of sheep. You can learn through an interesting talk given by the owner of the estancia about the different techniques and cuts of this traditional labor. |
The multiple activities in Estancia San Guillermo include learning about plants and animals, and their different uses.
Guanacos have been domesticated to such an extent that they will probably get close to you for the picture, or even get into the the cask of the estancia.
This estancia has a surface of 2.700 has., and is only 8 km. from the coast of Golfo Nuevo, where pristine beaches have maintained their beauty for centuries. |
|
Estancia San Guillermo is an ideal place for a family holiday, since young and children as well as adults will be moved at the freedom of these immense spaces and the purity of nature. |
|
You can lodge in the cask and contemplate the blue and the red tones in the sky, the pre-historic plateau and hear the silence in the sounds of nature. |
