 ESTANCIAS (RANCHES)
   3 Days / 2 Nights

Ranch life

Uruguay is sometimes called “The Big Ranch surrounded by the Sea” . Several ranches are available to visit by day or overnight.

Travellers are hosted by the Ranch owners with very comfortable accommodation. Traditional ranch houses have been carefully preserved, most of them decorated with authentic colonial furniture. Horse riding, swimming in natural lagoons, carriages and cart rides are some of the activities guests will enjoy at a Ranch and you can participate in the daily work of the gauchos.


ESTANCIA PARADA ARTEAGA

Parada Arteaga is justifiably a national monument. The location and style of construction are very attractive. It has much more the feel of a large working ranch than of a commercial hotel.
In the afternoon the gauchos will put on a team penning show along with other events, like pole bending and bull riding. The Uruguayans are the world champions at team penning. You will be greatly impressed by their ability.

Includes
2 nights accommodation at selected hotel

ESTANCIA SAN PEDRO DE TIMOTE
San Pedro de Timote was founded in 1854 by Pedro Jose Jackson on the lands of an ancient cattle farm of the Jesuit fathers. Through the years, it has remained one of the important cattle ranches of Uruguay.

In 1997, it was declared a Historical National Monument because of its architectural style, the design of its outdoors sites,the natural scenery that surrounds it and the testimonial values that it represents.

Today, San Pedro de Timote has been totally refurbished to be a “Hotel de Campo”, with all the services and amenities needed for a pleasant stay.
