Estancia Los Potreros

Ride through the rolling hills of the Córdoba highlands on well-trained horses chosen to match your riding ability. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced rider, each outing is tailored to your confidence and interests, with local guides leading the way across open valleys, rocky tracks and quiet woodland trails. Along the route, you’ll pass working cattle, native wildlife and panoramic viewpoints that showcase the surrounding landscape.

Horse riding is part of everyday life at the estancia, giving you the chance to experience the countryside much as local gauchos have for generations. Every ride offers a different route and a different perspective.

The hills, woodlands and open grasslands surrounding the estancia provide excellent opportunities for birdwatching throughout the year. Join a guided outing or explore at your own pace, keeping an eye out for woodpeckers, caracaras, hummingbirds, parrots and many other native species found across the Córdoba hills. The changing habitats around the property attract a wide variety of birds, making every walk or ride an opportunity to spot something different.

Binoculars and a local guide can help you identify species and explain their behaviour and habitats. Whether you're an experienced birder or simply curious, you'll find plenty to watch during your stay.

After a morning of riding or exploring the estancia, sit down to one of Argentina’s favourite meals, choripán. This classic sandwich features grilled chorizo cooked over hot coals and served in fresh bread, traditionally topped with chimichurri or salsa criolla. At the estancia, the recipe is given its own touch with fresh ingredients from the vegetable garden and homemade sauces alongside the traditional accompaniments.

Your hosts will also share how choripán became a favourite among gauchos and remains a staple across Argentina today. Enjoying it outdoors as part of your day offers an authentic taste of local food and estancia life.
