Corrientes
Life on the Ranch
With rivers and estuaries, the province of Corrientes offers a lush and subtropical home of hundreds of species of flora and fauna… and a rich culture and history strongly influenced by the Guaraní aboriginal culture, European immigrants and Jesuits.
We offer horseback riding adventures that show the magic and spirit of the Corrientes gaucho of the past, present and future. These unique experiences, impressive landscapes in magnificent horses, centuries-old customs, delicious meals – all organized with the skill and warmth of our people.
Swamps, lagoons, grasslands, forests, islands, and jungles.
These horseback rides will take you through unique and unforgettable landscapes. We work closely with two very special ranches near my hometown, Esquina, in the southwest of the province. Here, you can experience an intimate atmosphere, great comfort, high-quality rooms, and very friendly staff. We also offer typical Correntinian accommodations, providing a more authentic experience of how the locals live.
Corrientes is unique, and we can assist you in maximizing the use of our ranch as a base for organizing excursions to local rodeos, as well as trips with professional hunting and fishing guides.
We have our Criollo horse ranch, where we breed, train, and use these magnificent animals for our horseback rides.

Getting to Esquina from Buenos Aires is very easy. By car, the journey takes approximately 6 hours through the province of Entre Ríos.
