\nFirstly take a look at the Estancia ride<\/a>:<\/strong> A 10 day trip that allows you to experience gaucho life, spending each night at different Patagonian Estancias. It’s great for people who prefer not to camp and are up for spending long hours in the saddle and is best suited for experienced riders that are up for some fast and technical riding throughout the Patagonian mountains and pampas.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have availability for trips starting on<\/span> 19th February, 4th March and 19th March 2014.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For something a bit more challenging there’s\u00a0Riding to Glaciers with Gauchos.<\/a><\/strong>
\nThis trip is run by\u00a0incredibly experienced horse riding specialists from the area. It is a trip for experienced riders that are up for a real adventure in the Patagonian wilderness. You’ll get to see some of the very best of Torres del Paine National Park and camp underneath the stars like true Gauchos.As well as horse riding you will take a\u00a0fabulous boat trip that travels up the Last Hope Sound and you will get a chance to see some of the other wildlife Patagonia has to offer as well as the Balmaceda Glacier before docking at the Serrano Glacier.<\/p>\n

We have availability for this incredible trip from on the 2nd F<\/strong><\/span>ebruary and 2nd March.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\nWe also have a spectacular horse moving ride<\/strong><\/a> that includes 3 days riding alongside free-running horses, where you’ll get the chance to see parts of Patagonia that not many people get to see. The route takes you across Torres del Paine , through the lush greens of the south to the dry pampas of the north, all on horse-back.\u00a0You’ll be staying overnight at estancias adding to the authenticity of the trip.
\nWe have availability for this once in a lifetime trip for the 2nd April 2014.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are interested in any of these trips get in touch with us and start your gaucho adventure.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
