Activities and Excursions

The ranch offers hikes and horseback rides during which you can see herds of guanacos, lesser rheas, hares, many species of birds, and an occasional red fox. You can go up to the basaltic Lake Buenos Aires Plateau on foot or horseback for splendid panoramic views amid small meadows hidden between the rocks.

Other places to see nearby are La Leonera, Page Falls, petroglyphs and the Stone House (a cave where an early settler lived).

There are day tours to the 10,000-year-old rock paintings in the fabulous Pinturas River valley.

Estancia Telken

This old Patagonian ranch, started up in 1915, raises sheep and horses off National Route 40 in the northwestern corner of the Argentine province of Santa Cruz.

Tourists receive a warm welcome in the cozy main house surrounded by a pleasant garden and windbreak grove. The owners’ personal attention, the home-cooked meals shared at the family table and Patagonian hospitality make visitors feel like old friends.

The owners, descendants of New Zealanders, have made this place a classical stop-off for tourists coming from the far south, and those on their way south.
