One of the most iconic landscapes of the estancia, the mystical Sierra Baguales is the natural boundary between Chile and Argentina, as well as the site of recent paleontological and archeological discoveries. The solitary and wild nature of this little explored mountain range is a must for adventure enthusiasts.
For this excursion we head towards Puesto Las Flores, from where we start a steep ascent, off trail, that will take us through hills covered with coiron to the base of the Sierra Baguales. A series of small lakes, striking peaks and herds of guanacos are part of the breathtaking scenery that accompanies us as we approach Cerro Ciudadela. The descent is done through wide valleys, where you can still see herds of baguales; wild horses that inhabited in large numbers this place and that give their name to this remote mountain range.
