Estancia Huechahue (Patagonia)

Estancia Huechahue offers unmatched Patagonian wilderness access with multi-day treks covering 25 to 40 miles through volcanic landscapes and ancient araucaria forests. As a working cattle ranch covering 37,000 acres, it provides a grittier, more authentic cowboy experience that contrasts with #1 Estancia Vik's polished luxury. Riders cross the Rio Collon Cura using hand-hewn rafts, an adventure repeated by only 2% of estancia guests nationwide. Accommodations are rustic cabins heated by wood stoves, focusing entirely on the wild setting.
