Full description

Experience the authentic Patagonia with a unique horseback ride in Cerro Frias.

The adventure begins with a pick up at your hotel in El Calafate and, after a short ride, you will arrive at the Alice ranch, where our tour guides will provide you with all the necessary equipment to enjoy a safe and comfortable experience.

No previous experience is required, as our horses are trained to adapt to riders of all levels.

Follow the trails of Cerro Frias until you reach 400 meters above sea level, where you will be rewarded with spectacular views of the Centinela River valley, the imposing Los Cristales range and, on clear days, the iconic Torres del Paine.

The return will take you through an enchanting lenga forest, where you can immerse yourself in the calm and natural beauty of Patagonia.

The day culminates with a delicious meal to close the experience with a touch of comforting flavor.

I had an amazing experience on the horseback riding tour in El Calafate! From the start, the tour guides were incredibly friendly, making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. They shared interesting insights about the area and ensured we had a great time. The views were absolutely breathtaking – riding through the stunning Patagonian landscapes, with panoramic views of the mountains and vast open plains, felt like a dream. The connection with nature and the peacefulness of the ride made it an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting El Calafate – whether you’re an experienced rider or a beginner, this is a fantastic way to explore Patagonia in a unique and memorable way! 5/5 ⭐️
