What to expect
The immensity and serenity of the area makes this expedition a popular choice among visitors. We are the only humans around for thousands of kilometers; it is an extremely remote location with stunning views that will take your breath away.
Spending nights in the Andes are very special; far away from any source of light, the stars in the sky light up our world as we enjoy the tranquility around a campfire with a glass of wine and a delicious home-cooked meal.

I had a wonderful 3 day horse riding trip in the cordillera with José, the owner of the ranch, and a friend of his. 3 days immersed in the wild, with stunning views and a feeling of being propelled in a timeless world. José does everything to make the experience comfortable and enjoyable : he’s an incredible cook and the meals cooked everyday on a wood fire were amazing ! We even had grilled trout just fished out of a mountain creek ! The horses are very mild, well trained and well cared of. The experience is possible even without previous riding experience, provided you’re in good physical shape.I cannot put into words how amazing this trip made me feel, hopefully, some photos and video will show you! This was where I slowed down to the pace of the Gaucho, and where I have the best night’s sleep ever, just to add it was open air and under the stars. Rancho El Rosario is in a beautiful ...
I cannot put into words how amazing this trip made me feel, hopefully, some photos and video will show you! This was where I slowed down to the pace of the Gaucho, and where I have the best night’s sleep ever, just to add it was open air and under the stars. Rancho El Rosario is in a beautiful location at the foot of the Andes in the Uco Valley, or Valle de Uco. . The Uco Valley is widely considered one of the top wine regions in Mendoza, and all of Argentina. It is truly worth a few days on horseback to explore some of the Andes. The ranch sits on a modest 87,000 acres of unspoilt nature. There are 25 well-trained horses, 100 cattle, dogs, cats, chickens and more. All roam freely grazing on the property. José, the host, a third-generation ranch operator is a natural horseman, his quiet nature is reflected in the many animals surrounding the ranch, the moment you arrive you feel peace and tranquillity. . Once you immerse yourself into the remote foothills of the Andes, the breathtaking scenery opens up, I enjoyed a Gaucho asado, some overnight camping under the stars, and most importantly, safe and fun horse riding, I truly felt great! This tour is a no-pressure, relaxed and enjoyable trip, I cannot recommend this enough, I was asked what I wanted, and what I needed and was always kept safe. I will remember this forever. The short 2-hour drive south from Mendoza in the air-conditioned private car was excellent, the little Italian setting by a gorgeous river for lunch under the shade of a willow tree was perfect, and plenty of great food for breakfast lunch and dinner, accompanied by plenty of local Malbec. 5 stars, a must-do!This is where your dreams come true! A horse lovers haven in a beautiful location at the foot of the Andes. The ranch is situated by the Rosario river in a shaded enclosure with 25 beautiful and well trained horses.

This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Daniel (my guide) and I horse trekked for 3 days and two nights. We cooked all meals over a campfire, slept under the stars, saw a flock of wild Limas, drunk cleaned and washed from the mountain streams, climbed to the top of mountains where there were the most beautiful views of the snow capped mountains behind us, galloped in Pampas grass and dined at a typical Estancion on the way back. Daniel was the most professional, kindest and competent guide and as a solo female I felt extremely comfortable with him. He was also a fantastic Gaucho and really took care of the horses as well. It was fantastic and I would highly recommend it!From start to finish, this is a great place to go horse riding. Tobias on the email communication is very efficient.

From start to finish, this is a great place to go horse riding. Tobias on the email communication is very efficient. My husband and I spent 3 days trekking through Las Pampas and into the mountains with Jose. He was a wonderful guide and host who knew and cared for every horse. His Asado skills were fantastic, we ate delicious traditional Argentinian food and wine for three days. It was such a privilege to be able to ride through this amazing landscape on such wonderful horses. Muchas gracias for your hospitality José. Camping every night and having an amazing view of the stars was also such an experience.
